Well, first of all, the work was done by wayoflife-- I just kind of smiled and watched.

But, as far as the airdam goes (the "skidish" plate)-- we just pulled it off and I don't plan on putting it back on.

looks good, still debating this... saw a pic of a dude with a 2 door rubi on the main page's moab pics and he took the plastic off both the front and rear, and it actually didn't look that bad, but i'd prefer to keep the front fog lights...
