The first and only time I got an oil change at a shop, they used hydraulic wrenches to and stripped 4 out of 8 bolts.

I had to drill several parts of the body shield out before I could get the darn thing off. That shield is reinforced inside the plastic!

Needless to say, I've dont my own oil changes ever since.
Thank god, four bolts is still enough to hold the shield up.

I personal don't like having the oil drip onto the shield. Plus checking the shield is a good way to figure out where the leaks are coming from(if you clean teh sheild after each oil change)
