So I was browsing the 65+ mod page, and was really impressed with BigDave's F350 air dam.

I've been in touch with him, and he has made some suggestions (thanks, man).

I was wondering if anyone can chime in with some how-to advice. Since I routinely go under the front end for oil changes (yeah, I just barely fit), I need to be able to remove the air dam on command. Additionally, I don't want to do any drilling or anything that would change the vehicle permanently. Dave suggested finding a clamping method. I've been wondering if I could somehow use snaps (like on some coats).

Any ideas on a non-invasive air dam would be greatly appreciated!

If necessary, I can post pictures of the stock fascia.
