My splash guard ending up ripping of my bumper. eek! I guess it was from all the taking it off to put the KORE cai intake on I got from Bat Lord, and also the custom grill I put in on my front bumper. If it is a nice day, then it is beneficial to your intake, but on a really bad rainy day, I wouldn't drive it alot. But if you plan on getting a body kit, I wouldn't worry about it too much because alot of body kits don't fit right with them there anyway, well the body kits that replace your whole front bumper.

Tib , along with the dangers already listed, removing the guards under the car exposes the more "sensitive" parts to weather and debris.
I mention this everytime this topic is brought up...
One of our members removed his weatherguards, and while driving on the freeway, some debris popped up into the engine bay, cut a fuel line, and the leaking fuel ignited. Enigine bay fire on the GoldenState Freeway!
Leave the guards where they're supposed to be; you're not going to see any gains or increase in flow by taking them off, anyway.
