If you can get it a bit more tapered, I will buy one.

Regardless, I'm sure I will end up buying one and a splitter in the near future.

I definitely am planning to tweak the following:
Curvature of ALL the bars (not sure if I will curve them or angle them but I can do either just as easily on the waterjet)...
Angle of the support bars (I like the angle of the top and bottom but the middle parts angle too much and look weird and choppy)...
Work on the length of the bars and their ends (cut angle, round, leave blocky, REVERSE the cut angle, etc...)...
When I have a finished piece I plan to offer it in:
EL CHEAPO... I send you ABS pieces, you put it together.
Aluminum... Raw aluminum cut and welded together.
Aluminum Powder Coat Black
And if there is a market (and it is even possible to do) I might have one made out of polyurethane by my CME guy...

sorry man, i usually love all your work. but you may have to let this one go. unless you actually cut the center piece of the bumper completely out. this may be good to go infront of an intercooler. but the way it sets on your car it looks like a catfish with braces.

Good work!
I think it just needs to sit a bit deeper in, the horizontal bars gotta be a bit longer to fill the whole gap and also make them follow a bit more the bumper curve, looks like they're poping out a bit on the side.
Good deal that I'm looking for a grill atm, I might wait a bit longer to see what it turns out =)

I wonder if you could work something up for me out of ABS? To bad we don't live closer. I bought your Konis off you BTW if you remember!
Here's what I have. I wonder if the curves follow the curves of camaro bumpers at all? (Maybe I could get one of your ABS Camaro kits when there done and make it work!)
