Airdam removal

[LogJammin]

Has anybody removed the active airdam from their truck? I'm looking to remove mine for appearances, and would be interested in knowing the following:

Straightforward?
Did removal throw any error codes? If so, how did you delete the errors?
Noticeable hit to MPG?

Much thanks in advance!

It's very insignificant. I can't imagine it making a measurable difference in MPG. Or changing the appearance for that matter. It's tucked up out of sight when your not at highway speeds.

I should have been more clear...I also want to remove the solid airdam in front of the active airdam. I know that the solid airdam is relatively minor...just a few screws. But I wasn't sure about the active airdam. I thought I read somewhere that the computer will throw an error code if it's removed. Not sure if I will need a dealer to clear the code, or if I can do it myself (or if it will even be necessary).

I had to replace mine after i hit a fox or something on the highway. Very straight forward, no codes after removal. 1 electrical plug and 4 12 or 14mm nuts. I noticed about a 1 litre/100km increase with it on the highway. No difference in the city as it doesnt drop down.

Front Air Dam Removal

I am not a fan of the front air dam/valence. What’s the point of having a truck with 6” of clearance in the front. Always find myself catching them on snow in the winter. I searched around looking for pictures and information around issues with a dash light if the active air dam was removed...

Thanks! I’ve searched the forum multiple times, but this never came up. Used both *airdam* and *air dam*. Guess I’m not as computer literate as I thunk!
