Is there an easy way to remove it? Someone said cut it off. But what if I want to put it back on one day?

I think there is 5 or 6 bolts that attach it to the bottom of the bumper

On my 2012, the air dam only had 2bolts(one on each end) the rest of the fasteners were those little plastic "push to expand" fasteners. Only took a few minutes to remove, and should go back on just as easily.

IMO it looks better with it off or I have seen some trimmed that look good too. Takes away the over bite look. I'm sure it was designed for better fuel mileage or to help pull hot air from engine bay but I haven't notice a difference since I took mine off.

There are two 10mm bolts on each bumper side, then 10 of those push pins.

I removed mine, but my Cummins has the scoop like plastic under there to help air move into the cooler and hated it with it off, but didn't like it with it on.

10 minutes of my time, I just cut the part that extends down with a razor blade.

Here is what I mean: (Excuse the first picture, the truck was stock and I just painted the grill and bumpers)

Here it is with it cut off, but the top part still in place.
