08 Si Coupe White

do all stock Si's come with those front and real splash guards?
if so how do you remove them?

3 screws, 2 on the outside and 1 on the inside... and you can just tell them when you buy it you dont want them....

Can't find my camera so gotta use my cellphone.

Wheels are dirty because stupid friend try out my tire shine on my car. All the dirt and etc dripped over wheels and I didn't find out till later.

Heres a picture after her first car wash <3
(Again, cell phone picture)
