Just remove them. Mine has run without, front AND rear since I swapped out the fronts for Brembos in 2001, and the rears in 2006. No ill effects, and no chance of getting a stone caught between disc and protector, as I once did.
Best way to remove is to drill out the spot welds, then clean the whole area with a wire brush and hammerite it.

Sounds like a better plan to me mate. Cheers for advice backed by experience!
The rears are so rotten i could prob rip em off by hand. I did consider running without, but thought it would just equal brakes full of cack all the time.
Ill get to it. Weight off my mind. Thank you.
