Did you just leave the plastic part that sticks down at the front bumper? Or did you cut it ?

Why does it stick down like that anyway?

Also, just realized you took your car to SWR, my friend is kinda close with the people there, maybe you might know him if you're familiar with them as well?

He's a good friend of mine and I'm sure he does. You'll probably find it in the 2IS forum. Same SN.

You can actually remove it. Its held on by two or three screws. I haven't removed mine yet but I'll do it this weekend. I SCRAPE ON EVERY SPEEDBUMP! its pretty annoying. I'm sure its some sort of wind reduction or whatever.

I went to SWR based on yelp reviews and they did a great job. They weren't recommended by anyone. =) I heard Impressive Wraps are also a great choice.

Looks really good man, fronts look like you can lower it another 1/2"-3/4" too! The rears look nice and meaty with a tire wall like that, its too bad the fronts had clearance issues.

I like how they etched the logo instead of just being a sticker!
