Well, roughly a month and half later, and I've taken off the belly panel...at least for the winter. We got a heavy snow the other week and there were large icy chunks in the road, shed by large vehicles. I managed to miss most of them... but one I couldn't avoid slammed under the car just inboard of the left wheel. It pushed the coroplast against the suspension and ripped it up pretty good. I had to hack a portion of it away with a razor knife so I could drive home.
Come next spring I plan on installing an improved version.
I just can't be worrying about a belly panel while driving during the already harrowing winter season.
And winter gas is here, so my numbers are down. Blah.
If you live where it doesn't get cold or snow, count your blessings.
