Yes...you do need it. You'll notice that the engine will heat up at highway speeds because that "splash guard" is actually an aerodynamic diverter for air. Instead of allowing the air to distort under the car, it'll cause the air to flow smoothly to the engine and help keep it cool where the radiator and waterpump can't keep it as cool.
