Default engine bay stuff.

I want to know if it is ok to rip the ( i think it is called the...) Fire,heat, protecting stuff at the back of the eingine bay nearest the cabin.

Mine is looking very tired and dirty and torn, would it be a problem to peel it off?


peace
rob :king:

I think your biggest problem would be getting it all off!

I'd leave it on, i know how annoying and ugly it is when it rips cos it was stuffed in my EF, but its there to keep noise and heat out of your cabin.

Mines a bit worse for wear as well but its not that high on my list of things to fix.

Spray it with some black spray dye if it looks a bit dodgy. Mine doesnt even ahve it and you can definately notice the amount of engine noise in the cabin compared to the later model AU's.
