I voted for version 1. I'd get one if it's made. I was actually planing on getting my front bumper re-painted this summer, its got alot of cracks in the paint from bottoming out. So this would be a no brainer for me. My superhawk hood and this bumper would look sick!

Make the Version 1 and I promise I will buy one! Only change I'd make would be to go ahead and shave off the remainder of the little divider thing thats in the middle of where what used to be the divider for the foglights and vent. Here is a photochop of a very similar bumper I did a couple years ago:

It looks so out of place in this pic:
Looks like someone just took a stock bumper and chopped the divider out. There is no smooth way to terminate the little nub at all where it goes into the intake, and that makes it look totally out of place IMO
V2. The V1 looks "incomplete/separate". From a design standpoint the V2 looks like one piece. The V1 looks like someone bolted a splitter onto a bumper. The only thing I am confused about is that on the V2 bumper the two pictures look different, where the bumper meets the splitter.

I like this design best ChevyChad, still subtle and not too many lines (only thing I would add would be the 5 LED lights in the vent openings like the OP versions)...BUT if I had to choose out of the two versions from the OP I would go with V2 just because it doesn't have that many lines and cuts, imo, too much lines and cuts just looks kinda tacky.
I like how V1 looks more aggressive, but how the splitter sits flush in V2.... but I dont like the "notches" on the bottom of V2 under the "scoops". If it were flat like in V1, I'd go with V2.....therefore, I have not voted yet.

Your photoshop skills are far better than mine! 
Since then I think I've decided to go Smoothy with my front bumper instead of the larger scoops and maybe a molded splitter like the Vette style ones as an integral piece. 
I just had a lot of patience when I did that
