2008 Rear Diff Cover
Just ordered mine from FTE Parts Guy... Since it's come up a few times, I figured I'd post this up. Oddly enough, mine started leaking a couple weeks ago, so this is excellent timing. 
It was ~$55 shipped to my door. Click the pic for a link to FTE/Parts Guy's page for it:

Yeah, I know. I'm going to pull one out of the top of mine and find some that are a bit longer...

I'll probably do the bead-blast thing and clear-coat it. I did that on a different project with aluminum parts that sit outside and it still looks great! Although I painted it with Ford Gray engine paint. They make it in clear as well, so that's probably what I'll use. I like the look of the plain aluminum cover.
