I had some covers on mine and the aluminum spacers (that chatter around) made a black mess that doesnt clean off wherever the cover touches the springs. I suppose the black alum residue gets trapped inside the cover. If the shocks are already old and ugly, no big deal but if they are new you might want to reconsider covers if you are concerned about looks.

Why take them off? Isn't it to keep them clean.

So I shouldn't worry about covering them up??? I thought I had to protect the shaft.
