Engine splash shield

Does the 3rd gen Fit have 2 splash shields on the engine? Or one big one?

I took a piece off from the front end of the engine last year. This year, another piece has dropped down. This one is much farther back behind the front wheels.

of course, it just snowed so it’s a mess on the car and my driveway/garage,

There's one just under the motor and a very large one spanning around the entire wheelbase.

The large one ripped off twice in winter, so I removed it and have had no issue for over 3 yrs now. My car receives yearly Krown Rust treatment.
