Not a fan. Mine won't be coming off. If I did some serious off roading I'd probably pull it but I don't. I also travel the Interstate at 80 mph and I think it's more stable and quieter with it on, or so I have read.

Regardless of what anyone thinks... it doesn't matter, it's what you like. Part of what makes modding fun and making the truck "personal."

Enjoy

I'd be curious to how much the fuel mileage would drop with it removed???

I like the trimmed and removed versions. I removed mine, used a coping saw on the plastic tabs and put the bolts back into the holes to hide the openings. If I wanted to put it back on I think the 8 (maybe 10?) bolts would be sufficient without the tabs.

I also feel it looks good on trucks raised up from stock to about 3". Beyond that, and you're almost seeing too much undercarriage. Unless you got a dope suspension to show off (think the blue Kings), it's too much "parts". At that point, you're better off removing the stock bumper and getting one of those pre-runner type bumpers with a skid plate. Just my opinion.

[I]I trimmed my down my air dam this week. This way I don't have the holes left from the screws/bolts. I used the same contour line of the lower air dam had and taped it off. Used a Dremel Tool with a cutting wheel and then sanded it down to smooth it out. Nice compromise which has a nice line to it.

I trimmed mine down just enough to hide the 3 tabs. I like to be able to return my vehicles as close to factory when I trade them in or sell them and this was the easiest/cheapest way. Cutting off the mounting tabs of the part attached to the bumper would be $60 to replace, so I just trimmed the spoiler which is $26 to replace. I could of trimmed off about 3/8" more and it still would have hidden the tabs.
