I suspect they couldn't mod the door handles or add skirts in order to keep within the "stock" definition for bodywork. Probably a class thing.
EDIT: the slide isn't exactly comprehensive. It doesn't address the decklid extension or the smooth wheel covers...

Hrmmmmmm, I want to say "now I am glad I never did a belly pan". But, I think the Belly Pan benefit is being effected by the lowering. Would the belly-pan benefit have been more if they had never lowered it? Do you know what I mean? Did they test/simulate each mod independently?
