Is it safe to remove splash guard under engine to drive?
I hit a tire tread on the road and it broke my front bumper lip .Can I Drive my RX8 without the splash guard under the engine?

Mine came without a drivers side splash guard, beyond the slight decrease in radiator efficiency. Without the splash guard there's quite a bit more space for you to start flinging road grime over connectors sensors and other things. I've wondered if it was a major contributor to my steering rack failure.
I bought one of these for $20-25. It looks a little different than the OEM one, but it fits completely fine.
