Message	Is it important to keep it intact? Are people turned off when they see a z without it, as if the car is missing an important OEM detail? Or do people generally not care and prefer the clean look of the underside of the hood without insulation? Or is it primarily a personal preference issue? I've always left them in place, but I'm contemplating removing it from my red slick and curious how people perceive the idea. Cheers, JBrobst
