Default do i need that flywheel cover/shield?

theres a shield that covers the lower part of the flywheel in the lower tranny. my motor never came with one, and im thinkin about the chances rocks may get into the clutch and flywheel assembly. do i need this shield to protect against rocks and stuff?

I've never had a problem not running one. I figure its a good way to keep my clutch/flywheel cool j/k

I ran my d16z6 for about a year without the cover, and i never had any problems, drove it in the winter/snow/rain/mud you have it...
