Actually the second day I had my Audi I was flying around the corner getting on an on ramp to the highway and overestimated quattro and the esp and went skidding off the road into some weeds and stuff to the side of the on ramp. I ended up back on the on ramp and half of my plastic belly was laying on the road while the other half was still on the car half hanging down... I've had my belly pan off since then and it's fine. I've gone through foot deep snow a lot and it's just fine.
