Th Xenon spoiler was actually in place before the MBRP exhaust went on,
but I haven't noticed it getting dirty any sooner than it did previously
with the stock exhaust. I'd expect the turbulance behind the truck from
air that goes under the truck to roll up behind and add to the exhaust
being blown back against the tailgate. Not sure the spoiler would really
help or hurt that much. Too slow a speed to have much affect.

Looks like you did a flip kit on your tailgate handle. Looks good.
That's on my list if I can ever find a time slot to get it back into the
body shop.

Are those Borla exhaust tips?
