Yeah they are easy to take off. I just wanted to get an idea of what it looks like did you bend the tabs on the fenders up? My car is in storage so I cant access it to try it out. Just pondering for the spring

Not a good idea to just toss those plastic bits. That is unless you like dirt and junk getting slung up into your door hinges and have stuff collect at the bottom of your fender to rust it out later.

Yeah, I would definitely not remove them. Without them, there is nothing to stop rocks and dirt from getting thrown into your fender and door hinge area. You could end up getting a rock into the back of the fender and making a nice dent from the inside.
