E36 Shielding behind the rotors question

[robert l kollar <robkollar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Like that description?  that just means I don't know what the hell that
thing is.  I am refering to the metal shielding that is the size of and
resides behind the rotors.  My best guess is that they are some kind of a
splash guard?  what do these things do and would anything negative result
from my removing them?
	I am currently putting on all new rotors, and while I have access I would
assume that removing that shielding would provide better air flow to my
brakes-  lemme know if I am way off here.  thanks
