Default 2010 Honda accord Coupe "4cyl EX" Missing part?

Hey guys I just purchased a 2dr Accord Coupe a few weeks back. I just noticed I might be missing the cover that says I VTEC in the engine bay. Do the 2dr Accord Coupes with the 4cyl all come with this cover?? Thanks!

From looking at the parts for the 2010 Accord EX coupe, it does not appear it has the engine cover.

The 2008-2009 EX coupe had the engine cover. Even on the sedans, ULEV LX and LX-P didn't have the engine cover.

I have wondered as to why they deleted this item. I noticed that the above is correct and thought hmmm. I actually had to compare to another to make sure that someone didn't just forget. lol

Thank you! That is very odd!

P.S. Wish it had it, looks cleaner with it!

i just bought a 2010 LX-S myself, it does not have the iVTEC manifold cover either, but whatevers, it does not do anything anyways.

honda probably has cost cutting pressure, i notice the new car does not have some trim items, such as door courtesy lights, glove box light and hood liner also, all of which my 2007 SE I4 had.
The new interior is also rather plain, the 06/07 SE had chrome and carbon fiber interior trim.

All the old stuff was a nice touch, but considering the 2010 cost almost exactly the same as my 2007 despite the better engine and suspension/wheel setup, i can live without.
