That rots pretty bad!
Big Blue is rotting in the same place as that (not quite as bad) I'm gonna patch it up soon and cover it with underseal.
Should work fine.

I've noticed it starts around the clips that hold on the plastic guard and it just gets worse from there. If they haven't already started rusting get some paint around them.

Definatley needs looking into before next winter.
