    Are the factory skid plates for the TRD and SR5 the same? I was thinking of removing my air dam but in the pictures I've seen, it kinda looks different than the TRDs that don't have an air dam. (Not taking about the white TRD plate.)

    I think the front plate is the same on all but the TRD Pro, and then the TRD Offroad has a second plate behind the engine plate. (Top is the engine, bottom is TRD Offroad tranny plate.)

    I removed the air dam on my truck and think it looks way better like most who have.

    Take it off and hang on to it in case you don't like the MPG's and looks.

    I think it's 8 screws holding it in place takes no time to remove it.

    If you do a lot of highway driving you might not like it removed btw...
