Good or Bad ?/

Was thinking of removing the insulation liner under the hood. Can this possibly help reduce heat? Makes sence to me, What do you think?

Some have em some dont. But USUALLY the ones with them are not cleared all the way and look like ***. So i say if you have one that is shiny and cleared remove it and if it is not remove it anyway cause they look bad imo.
