Any body had the shaft guards break on their rear Fox shocks?

Shocks have less than 1000 miles on them and both the left and right rear are broken. Not sure it matters but it sure would be a pain to remove the spare part from each one.

It can't fall out but it probably adds wear and tear to the spring. It would be a pain to cut up and remove
