rear wheel well protector: remove?

so my neighbor bought a 2nd hand prelude. got tons of stone chips on the hood so we replaced it with a carbon one . i noticed that his prelude's wheel wells have this protector that our rdx also has. question is: does one remove it or keep them on? (See link on possible results of keeping them on).

we've done a bit of research and it's a toss up. curious to find out what ppl here think we shld do on the rdx wheel well protector.

I've taken it off on my Forester as it was starting to come off. I also noticed that there is a lot of dirt that builds up under there when I pealed it off. So guess we will see what happens in the long run.

i guess based on your inputs, prolly best to just leave it alone for now and just take it off when it's starting to "peel" then. after all our rdx was "designed" for the north american market so hopefully, they took into account that winter does bring salty roads here.

thanks guys

If it's not causing any issues (on the RDX) I'd leave it on there...no point in removing it.
