My question is, has anyone done anything to ease the damage? And if I just remove it, will I notice much of a difference in air flow?

This is a constant annoyance until you slowly scrape away enough chin spoiler until you can not hear it. Then if you are like me you lower your car half an inch and it starts up all over again.

The spoiler plays no role in my life so I am sure it could be removed without a hitch. I consider the damage as a badge of honor as it only scrapes when I go around climbing or descending turns, or fast straights and a slamming effect occurs.
