thanks for the feedback... I looked at the front end and there is room for improvement. The bumper has about a .5-.75" gap that is open and probably causing a problem. I noticed that around the headlights there is a seal that preents air from getting past it. I would take that as an example on what to do with the bumper. I believe should be able to push the bumper up a bit to close off that gap. Looking at other rams I think mine is a bit lower than what it should be. I had the bumper of years back for a tow hook install.

so you think the 2nd air dam is a waste? I also looked at the possibility of the smaller deflectors off the frame and that should be do-able...
