Nope, no hole in the middle. The middle piece you see in photos is not actually connected to the trunk. It is a support piece with a rubber base and corresponding clear plastic protector on the trunk. The two make contact if you use the spoiler to close the trunk due to the deflection in the aluminum wing. It is merely there to keep the spoiler from being damaged due to people grabbing it to close the trunk.
