Throw a little metal mesh behind it and rice it up

Related, but not...

what would it take to get rid of the little horizontal section of bumper at the bottom of the valence. You know, push the bumper back 2 inches.

No "Drive it into a wall" cracks!

That is a nice looking front end.

I recommend a knight-rider strip to finish it off.

I wonder if you might have a problem with the air flowing under the hood like that at high speed.
