Bummer. I am in my third winter with mine with no damage. (photos in my profile). I do have an aluminum skidplate under the engine and the leading edge of the coroplast angles up sharply just behind that. The first winter with the belly pan I discovered that the gaps around the rear wheelwells allowed snow to blow into the gaps between the body and the belly pan. I extended the fenderwells the next summer and no problems since. I was pushing snow for many miles last weekend but it was fluffy Colorado snow not frozen chunks.
