I am installing this on a 2007 n ford focus and truthfully the belly is already fairly smooth. When i pull the rachet strap tight it is right agaist the floor pan.
I am also considering cuttting the slots for the ratchet strap just slightly inside of the natural run of the straps so that when they are tight they will pull againt each other.

Another idea to combat the tendancy to sag downthe middle i am considering a length wise acccordian fold. chanells running the length of the car that would make a floppy piece of plastic more structural.

I will post some pics soon.

Right now the mostsignificant amout of time in the on and off is figuring out how to get the ratchet straps into the neutral position so that they pull freely :P
