I recently had the kaminari front bumper installed and the bodyshop that installed it just kind of left the plastics under the engine hanging because theres no place to mount them on the new bumper.
I noticed at first when i got up to 70mph+ i could hear it shake around, but today on the way into work i could hear it rattling pretty bad when i was only going 30mph, so i pulled over and it was just laying right on the ground dragging so i just ripped it out thinking that would solve the noise for now atleast.

now the fender plastics in the rearwell are starting to rattle, im going to have them fix it but i was wondering how bad it is to just remove all the protective plastics for the time being so i can drive my car, especially in new englands snow/salt/dirt ??

:nails: :nails:

thanks

i would have to say that's a pretty bad idea. the whole purpose of the plastic is to protect a bunch of stuff and by leaving them off especially where you live could be a bad thing. all of that salt and crap will be left everywhere

Plastic is overrated!! If you lived somewhere like FLA I would say toss it as I did.. Looks alot cleaner I think. I only have the back halfs of my wheel wells and the rest of it is gone... I get around fine...
