gt500 chin spoiler on a 4.0

RE: gt500 chin spoiler on a 4.0
ill get some more pics up later in the week. the spoiler install is pretty easy. the sides match up to the factory inner fender screws. i drilled and bolted through the bottom of the bumper and through some of the molded bosses in the chin spoiler. the hardest part was making the filler piece. the gt500 bumper is vertical at the bottom where the 4.0 is curved in. that leaves some of the spoiler reinforcement exposed. so i took about a 2 inch section out of the bottom of a mid 90s fullsize chevy truck chin spoiler i got from the salvage yard. it has a molded lip on it that let me bolt it to the gt500 spoiler from behind. theres no exposed hardware and the whole assembly makes the front bumper about 1.5 inches lower making it match the hieght of the side skirts. ive had no problems with speed bumps the ride hieght is stock, but i wouldnt pull over top of a curb with it. the grass in the pic is quite tall so it looks close to the ground in the pic.

I have a gt-500 lip in my shed. I wanted to try and fit it to my stock bumper but obviously it was a no go. I'm interested in seeing more pics of yours. The pic you posted makes it look a bit odd.
The front bumper is the one thing I do not like about my car. I was thinking of getting a Parnelli Jones bumper, but I might try your lip idea first.

That looks pretty bad ***. I would like to see different angles also. If you detailed out everything, step by step, I am sure several others could get something going with this.
