It took me 1 day of owning it and took it off. Very easy just remember to put back 2 screws that hold the lining on the wheel well for each side and your good to go.. no diff in having it on or off just cosmetic look.
I removed mine and love the look but have notice a low wind noise after removal. Starts at around 30 mph and goes on till 60 or so. Been looking for a solution because I want to keep it off. Saw a test video done and only had a 0.7 mpg difference. Have you not heard this noise on yours after removal?
@@ProjectDIY2 Ok, well if you do this guy posted a video of what is causing it and how to stop it. Simple solution ruclips.net/video/sVQ_IzqIZ7Q/видео.html
So I did this mod on my brand new sr5 4x4 and the very next day when I went to work I heard this very persistent high pitched drone. It was like air rushing over a ladder rack or something. No way I'm gonna listen to this all the time so I put the air dam back on and noise is gone. So Toyota probably new about this and had to design something to stop this noise. Not to happy I have to keep this ugly air dam on
Awesome! Been wanting to do this to my truck as well.
Picking up my tacoma tomorrow, first thing I'm taking off, Thank you.....
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
Just picked up a 2024 TRD Tacoma sport and I have been thinking of take mine off too!
Looks 100% better! Thanks for watching!!

Thanks for watching!!

You're welcome, thanks for watching!!
Looks 100x better now.
Yes it does! Thanks for watching!!
Looks so much better but before i do it to mine, has it made a difference in road noise and/or driving performance?
Some people have had wind noise/whistling but I haven't heard any difference. Thanks for watching!!
@@ProjectDIY2 just got mine this past weekend so far that’s the one exterior thing I want to change
My son has a 2017 since new. Removing the air dam was the first thing he did
Thanks for watching!!
Good video.
Thanks for watching!!
i wanna do this to my trd sport, i too think the air dam is ugly. Have you heard any whistling since removing?
Thanks for watching! I haven’t had any noises but if you do, there is a fix for it: ruclips.net/video/EygkaXD9uQY/видео.htmlfeature=shared
How’s your MPG? I’m debating on removing mine. Idk if it makes much of a difference with MPG
I didn't notice any difference at all. Thanks for watching!

I want to do this but I hate how the trd sport skid plate looks, so I'll probably look at getting an aftermarket skid plate.
Agreed, it’s not really a skid plate anyway. More of a tough fiber cover? Thanks for watching!!
Did you track your mpg’s with and then without…you know…for science?
Lol I’m no scientist 😂 but I saw zero difference in my mpg’s after removing the air dam. Thanks for watching!!
I honestly like mine and I heard it makes whistling noises so it’s a no for me.
Thanks for watching!!

Nice find on the holes in the A-arms!!! Luckily mine has never made this noise.
Hopefully they make aftermarket air dams that help the issue but don’t look so ugly lol
