Default Rear wiper removal

So I'm thinking of taking the rear wiper off and have a few questions before I do so.

- is it street legal to do so?
- do I need any special tools to remove it
- are there any marks remaining after I remove it?

There will be 2 bolts to remove and a plug to detach and the motor is out.

There are many options for plugging the hole Every thing from a rubber grommet and a nickel to a backup camera. I used a 1" hole plug I found at home depot. You could color match it with a can of touch up paint.
