Well, I took off the ugly air dam from my 2024 Tacoma Sport. Looks better already, but not perfect. See before / after pictures. I have circled in red the felt-ish material that is now exposed without the air dam. With those 2 wind-catchers, I am definately getting a howling sound (starting around 35 mph). I have purchased a TRD skid-plate, but am still waiting for the NYTOP Front Frame Cross Member to arrive. I'll update this thread with new

The howling noise is not from those areas, it is coming from the holes that do not have the plugs. You need to purchase the plugs but until you get them just cover the holes with blue painters tape.

Oh, ok. Thanks! I'll look into trying to get those. The would have been super frustrating after getting the skid plate on and still having the noise. Thanks again, Mark
