Think you can do something similar for lt1's? I've been wanting to get this made for a bit.
I want this bumper, without the air damn built in. I just want it so the center opening is lower and deeper, so that a grille may be placed deep into it.
You could build it with or without that air damn that is in the middle. I would want mine without, so I can do like mentioned above.

Ours will be different but look as great as possible. The guy (company actually) I'm going through makes and produces bumpers by the dozen so he knows what he's doing...

Hey so i've been thinking about this thing, and I think the best and easiest thing for you to do would be to create a type of valance that people can buy, attach to the bumper, and then have it painted together to look like one piece. this would bring the cost down quite a bit, as well as the shipping for a whole bumper piece.

if i had the money right now i would buy the splitter and mold it into my bumper would be easy for me to do since i work in a body shop and my car is sitting there apart with the bumpers off. 6liter pm me if your interested in seeing it done before you go ahead and make them.

Using the DH bumper as inspiration is great but I'd like to see something a little different than just a stock looking bumper with something added. Maybe bigger holes in the grille area or relocating the stock turn signals and using some from another car. Just something a little more custom. It was probably hard enough to get someone to make an aftermarket bumper that will look good, so whatever you decide to produce, I'm sure it will look great.
