Probably because except for Troy's purpose their useless. For those still
with a flap I'd pull off it off and also pull off the horn of the air filter
box that directs the intake into the fender. This will make a strait path
for cold air to find your filter. Someone suggested putting up a piece of
screen where the flap was, good idea.
For Troy: I don't think this stock flap will give you protection like you
think it will. It covers a very small area, about 8in x 8in square. For
your use I'd cut up an old rubber mat and fit it to the inside of the grill.
Use zip ties or something to hold it in place, then pull it out when the
snow melts.
