lol, the main purpose is, if there is a fire, the plastic screws melt, and the pad drops down reducing the fire damage. U can remove it, yet you do risk two things, warping the hood of ur car, not sure to what extent. And if there is a fire or something there will be more damage to your car. Its a saftey thing, alot of cars don't have them. I am removing mine tomorrow lol .
