Front spoiler with RCI skid ?

[Gstick]

Do most of you all that have aftermarket aluminum engine skid plates leave the front lower bumper spoiler on or remove it ? I'm going to mount the aluminum RCI plus the bumper filler plate, and was curious if the black plastic spoiler should still stay on. This is for a 2010 SR5 4R 4x4 with the front Billies set @ 1.75".

Thanks in advance !

I cut the air dam in half to increase clearence, but left it partially on both for a cleaner look and because I found the the rci filler plate did not cover quite as much as I liked with the air dam completely removed. Then I used some zip ties to tighten everything up. No pictures at the moment, but maybe I can snap some this weekend.

Take it off. Looks much better without it no matter what you are running.

Do you have any photos that you could post ?

I agree it looks better (mostly) off. The only thing I left on is the very top edge of the middle cut-out (which you really can't even see), which adds a little protection for a stray rock fitting in between the bumper and the filler plate.

I left mine totally on, have the front rci skid and filler plate. Surprised I hadn't ripped it off yet, but it's fine.

I took your advice and removed the front spoiler/air dam when I put the aluminum RCI engine skid and bumper filler today. I couldn't be happier with the way it looks !
