yer just wip that heat shield off as i can see you have a induction kit so you dont need it anyway ''that looks sweet i must say''.
there is a guide on how to do on oil change on this site.

i think it is 4 torx's bolts on then lifts off if you dont have any torx sockets use a 8mm spanner or socket should take em off.

need to clean you your rocker cover and airbox lid just cleaning all the black bits make it look cleaner get an old rag and spray wd40 on your black plastic and give it a rub and wipe will look alot better.
