Default Painting the undercarriage

I've been not too happy about the rusty driveshaft thing since i posted it up a few months ago and lurking around this forum and others, it seems like stock, unmodified cars have alot of parts that are "meant" to go rusty, as in, form a layer of rust to prevent more rust.
That doesnt sit well with me either. I know logically it makes sense, but meh, doesn't feel right.

Anyway, I've had a look around and I'm thinking of getting together with a mechanic mate of mine and paint all "rusty" or bits with the potential to rust with POR15 all along the undercarriage, long term project kind of thing, taking a few pieces out, painting it, then slotting it back in once it's done. Bit of an opportunity to see the car up close as well and learn a bit more about it.

Firstly, has anyone done it before on a Fiesta? Also, how hard is it and will it void my warrenty?
