Drop the air dam in the front... makes a big difference (more than you would think, especially with your boards removed). Talking about the rounded plastic that makes up the lowest portion of your front end...2 bolts, so if I'm wrong you can put it back on, took me a while to take that advice but once I did, I was very happy. Looking good though!

x2! When I had my bumper made, there was obviously no reason to keep the air dam, and once it was off for good I really noticed how much more I liked the look. It makes it look like I've got a decent amount of clearance.

Enjoy the Holiday weekend everyone, be safe!
Here is a little more recent. Plasti-dipped badges, edge of ecoboost badge, and reflectors. Spray on bedliner used in the rear wheel wells. Thinking about losing the running boards and and lower bumper piece.



Then the most recent, as of last Friday at work.

I haven't done much with it since I've only had it since 6/28/13, but I've made some minor (cheap too) exterior mods.


Before:

First day at the dealer, ready to go home





At home, just one month old.

I remember someone saying they noticed a slight increase... I can't imagine much though... maybe 1 or 2 tenths! I recomend it though I think it looks much better without it. (Sorry for the sideways comparison)
