Default inner fender rubber

i was just wondering if it was a big deal if i didnt put the inner fender rubber back on? when i was trying to do my starter, i had taken it out, but it ripped, and i also broke most of the plastic clip things.

Its just a splash sheild to help keep the tires from kicking mud, dirt, water, etc, out of the engine bay. It's not a huge deal if its gone, especially if you don't do serious offroading.

thats what i figured. the worst its gunna see, is a downpour while its sitting in the back yard. i dont drive it too much anymore. ive found less things break that way. until i have more money lying around, i have to try to avoid breaking it...

Ya you don't need it. But it is good to have to keep the engine bay from getting junk in it. Since the body lift made mine useless I just got some basic sheet metal and cut up something that fits. Way better then stock. I actually used used ac air duct to make it. Free and it is perfect.
