Question Buying 2005 S2000. Have some questions

Hi!
I am going to finally pull the trigger on S2000.
I have found one clean and in good condition. All stickers are at place.
Nevertheless, I have some doubts about undercarriage photos.
I have marked the area I do not like. Is it ok or this is something fishy?

to me, it looks pretty normal. Some of the undercoating has chipped off perhaps.
the lift is positioned poorly, however.

Thank you for the reply.
Does it make sense to cover this part with something?

Looks fine to me. If something was hit you would see evidence elsewhere than in those small areas. Everything else looks intact. Go for it! Make sure you keep auto distancing for the virus!

Yeah looks fine to me. The front lift point is wrong like someone else pointed out. Hope that didn't mess anything up.

I did a double take on that too lol.

There's no way the plastic is supporting the car like that.

I think the actual arm of the lift is engaging the correct front lift point. The lift's lifting pad is not supporting anything.
