Replacing Coolant
Hey Guys! I'm about to Replace my coolant for the 1st time. I was about to undo the drain plug and noticed the black plastic sheet covering the entire front underneath. How would I take it off?

There are 10mm bolts across the frontside of the black thing. Take them all off and it should fall off.

I recommend pulling the lower drain hose off, thermostat side, to drain. It goes much faster. I also pull the thermostat. Also using distilled water when you refill for the added water. When you refill keep it running until it heat up and then top it off and seal the radiator. Also let it go thru a few heat up and cool down cycles adding to the overflow tank in between, before you go for a long highway drive. This helps to get the air out. I like to get the front wheels up on ramps for this job.
