I did modify my air dam to be 6" above grade, but it's still there.

Attach the front edge of the side skirt REALLY well.
Big Dave...I attached my side skirts on with 2 bolts on to my belly pan supports. Easy to remove with either a ratchet or drill driver. You should reconsider it and take another shot at it.
