Default Under-engine splashshield?

Do Imprezas come with a plastic 'under-engine' splashshield? I.e. one that goes across covering the headers up, or even back as far as the sump? Mine never had one but I'd like to fit one if they exist. MY98 classic btw.

Yes they have them as standard.

You will see your oil temp raise by 2-3 degrees (some have claimed 5 but i did not see that much) with it back on, hence why i leave mine off.

Sorry to be a pain, but anyone got a picture of one? I'm seriously contemplating getting one just to cover the headers - I do a bit of 'off-roading' every now and again in my wagon and would prefer to keep crud off my heat wrap!
