You can leave the plastic on the lower pipes while you're fitting them, then remove later. Added protection against the aluminum scraping while installing. That being said, they are aluminum pipes, you can sand/buff the scratches out, but so much less work to just take a couple extra minutes during the install. BeemaaZ likes this.
