I made a similar air dam using carbon fiber last fall. Made a wire frame from some scrap 9ga wire. It was easily bent to match the shape of the front bumper cover. Covered the wire with polyester cloth and hand sewed it in place. Used heat to make sure it was shrunk tight. Sprayed some 3m super77 glue on the fabric. Layed some heavy carbon fiber cloth on the fabric then painted on epoxy. Once cured I peeled the carbon off the wire fabric frame.
