    Not sure what you mean, clear plastic protectors? They can be removed with correct procedures, heat and rubber eraser wheel or other glue residue remover after peeled off.

    They are there to protect against stone damage. There are threads on how to remove/replace them on this forum, I think under the detailing section.

    I just removed mine the other day . Mine peeled right off. I bought new ones and screwed up the one side putting in on so I just cut a piece to cover the bottom section
