importance of a splash guard?
are splash guards important? i thought it was important to have one, especially since i live in winnipeg where snow and salt and other garbage could possibly bounce up into the engine compartment. my mechanic says it's not that important. is he just being a loser?

Well is your mechanic an engineer? If its there its there for a reason, it helps with aerodynamics which in turn gives you better gas mileage, makes the car look better, and keeps oil from hitting your driveway when you develop a leak. But if you mechanic says its worthless..........
