I made a rough mockup earlier today, but I'm just going to have to break down and cut the holes to get the angle just right.

Also, how to the oem ducts mount? I was thinking of a plate on the inside of the bumper. That way, I could make some studs into the duct that would go through the bumper and plate, secured by lock-nut or similar.
The way they mount is a bolt with a washer or pop-rivet in each corner. That's it. Nothing behind the bumper but a washer and nut. You have to be careful. These things are thin!
