They were put on there for a reason.
They assist in high speed cooling, as the air will take the path of least resistance, I.E. not through fins of an intercooler.

your brake fluid reservoir is in the back right corner, but the under cover doesnt go back that far. you never know someone might have spilled something. next time you park your car overnight check to see if it leaked anything on the ground and you will know if your leaking.

no nothing is leaking but when i bought the car the lady said it was leaking redish fluid and it was like a tiny puddle in her garage. and its been leaking for two years. It was a very small puddle of redish fluid.
