There is, for the pans are mounted to the trim rings.

Opinions please!

Should I do side skirts, or boattailing behind front tires?

and how would be the best way to set up the side skirts?

I'd knock an air dam that low off the first day for sure. Awesome if it works for you though.

I think that I will rethink this, as I got the taller, thicker lawn edging (its hard to bend at all), I think that I will use the shorter, thinner kind, this will give me more ground clearance, and will bend when needed.
