Just kidding. If you deal with sticky mud, make sure the belly pan can handle it. Either set it up so that mud can't get up on top of it and pull it down, or make it fairly tough and easy to clean, or all three.

Coroplast seems like it might be good for inner fender liners to keep mud off the underside of the rig. It's flexible enough that dried mud should break off fairly easily, helping reduce the weight gain you get when you're in the mud.

That's a nice-looking cap, by the way.
