Plate mounting?

That must be why I can't find it in any of the parts catalogs. BTW, I just went out to look at it again and it really doesn't fit well, leading me to believe that it could even be backward. Would it make sense to have a straight edge toward the engine? I guess I'll have to jack up the car, remove this and try and figure it out. Is 986-504-119-00 the part that should be there?

OK, I was finally able to remove the aluminum plate and take a closer look. Not Porsche and not aftermarket. I'm not sure why someone would do this. Removing this solved one of the rattle issues!

My jeep does not even have that kind of armour; safari 986?
