dude, can I see a better pic? Like one with some sun light..

I might be able to freak this lip, that looks like a good start.. I would fit it to the bumper, spread some glass to smooth things out and make it rigid, and used some filler and finish putty to put the icing on.. Let me know on the pics, maybe I'll make a how to make ur own front lip..
