Agreed.
A truck blew a tire in front of me going up I-84 near UCONN a bunch of years ago. I couldn't avoid the debris, but got lucky in that it only knocked the air intake around and banged up that shield.
I had the airbox mounts replaced shortly after, but it was just recently that the shield disintegrated and my mechanic said that it really had to be replaced as it was the only protection of the belt from the underside.
Even with his markup, parts and labor were only about $55 - $60, and I didn't have to crawl under the car in 20 degree weather.
Funny how the car seems quieter on the highway now that the torn piece isn't dangling in the slipstream!
