Hopefully it does not happen to the extent that I imply in my tongue in cheek post. What actually worried me a bit more is that the holes in the fender liners may allow salt and other corrosives to get behind the fenders where they cannot be easily removed and where they can slowly eat away at the metal. It remains to be seen how the vents are engineered on the inside to prevent this.
