Default Prevent rust on wheelwells
Should I remove the rubber piece underneath the wheelwell to prevent rust? Has anybody done that?

Previous owners kept it on but it was never winter driven, when I got my car. The first thing I did was remove it.

The rubber trim is on the lip of the rear wheel well. Simply pull it off.
