BTW nice documentation and work!
A front air dam is on the list for sure. I thought about doing an underbelly tray but I'm not that motivated lately.

I'm hoping to build a 2-3 inch airdam to the lowest hanging part and then also doing wheel covers.

I have looked at doing side skirts but still trying to figure out how to mount them.

I also need to stop by a sign place and see if they will sell me some coroplast. Nobody sells it local besides them.
