How important are the engine splash guards?  Mine are made out of cardboard.
One of them fell off about a month ago while I was driving :-(  Both are
pretty torn up and the one that fell off is unrepairable.  I have considered
taking the remaining one off (before it falls off) and not replacing either.
Any ideas about this?  If I do replace them I was thinking of fabricating them
out of some sheet aluminum.  I actually like having it off because it allows
better access to the engine, but at what cost?
