You can take it down with no problems. It mostly just deadens the noise a bit. Or, if you want to totally replace it, you can buy new stuff.

car motorsports has hood insulation with your cars logo. i plan on getting my new insulation with the WS6 badge and use the spread screws to hold it up so i can pul it out after events.
iv had mine out for about 2 yrs now. being mine was worn it not being there now gives the under hood a cleaner look.

Think I paid like $40 something for a new one from the dealer. Cleaned things up real nice. The n2o backfire a while back made a bit of a mess .
