This picture reminds me of something I saw on the Fit forum. There were many complaints about this wheel arch sound proofing sagging a bit......

quite a different look then what I saw under the HRV at CIAS, but I'll chalk that up to autoshow access...

Wow! I'm loving how protected under the chassis but I wonder if that will have significant issues with rust? Even to repair anything under there the panels will have to be removed first I'm guessing..

I'd be concerned about rust too. You can see there are some holes cut out in some spots which will allow salt to enter and sit. I recall when I had my 2001 Acura CL, it had a plastic grated cover to protect the brake lines which caused the salt to get trapped in it and it actually caused the break lines to rust faster. I guess this is more of Canadian problem though.
