I put this on last night and can't wait to see how it affects FE.

In the last picture you can see the side skirts I installed last night too.

You'll notice damage on passenger front quarter panel from a fellow who tried to turn left through my car. Body shop in a few weeks so I'll pull off the skirts and air dam before I give it to them.
Air dam looks pretty sturdy. Is that a modular shelving rail that it is mounted to? How'd you attach to the bumper cover?
I assume yours will have to be more stout than most since it will plow snow periodically.

Since you already plug it in for the battery warmer and charger, do you plan to add a block/coolant heater?
