Take it off!!
I didnt notice any difference in MPG, its a worthless piece of plastic that IMO Chrysler puts on there for aesthetics. I can not see how it would effect cooling your radiator, and certainly can not see how it would cause hood flutter...

Yeah I ripped mine out earlier today, looks amazing! I reset my avg MPGs and noticed a bit of a drop...Mostly due to the 20mph head wind 
Gotta love cool fronts though!

I replaced my cheesy plastic skid with the Mopar steel skid to protect the underside. Easy bolt on and very stout piece. Found the best price on Ebay.
