I just finished the driver's side installation of my SLP shorties. There's a black plastic cover that goes over the steering column near the firewall that's close to the header; it's gonna burn for sure. Is it ok to leave the plastic cover off? I'd post a photo but not sure how to on this board........

 

You can take it off, no problem.

 

everyone leaves it off.

 

Yep, its gone for good. Just another weight savings.

 

Mines gone as well !!!

You might wanna invest in a rag-joint elemanator soon though
