hey...

take a quick look at my 206 below. in the pic you can see a kind of cover attached to the inside of the bonnet. it's now a little bit shabby, will it have a detremental effect to anything if i remove it?

thanks

The sound deadening?

EDIT - If that's what you mean it will just make the engine noiser
