Default removing the mmud flaps

would removing these and the plastic actually help prevent rust, because it seems like it would do the opposite

i removed mine and i havent gotten any rust. just be careful with driving through tar or road paint bc it will get on the car, also mud but thats not as big as of a deal

also heard that it actually prevents rust because air can flow better through fender walls as well as water draining off better. just removed mine cause changed fenders and am too lazy to put back on. some ludes look better with them on some better with off...woulden't remove sideskirts though..would get chipped up something ugly. then lots of rust.
