Constructing a whole new front to move it out a couple inches will be a lot of work for very little gain. Seriously, start working on the rear end. That wake off the sedan body is causing you more drag than the front end ever will.
But yes, does anyone else have input? Agree/disagree?

Two reasons to build an extended new front. It gives you the space to install a fully adjustable grill block (either automatically or driver controlled) rather than the "one size fits all" grill block most commonly installed.
Second, if you drive in deer country, a low sloped nose is ideal for sending deer up and over the top of the vehicle with minimal damage to the front of your car (and give any tailgaters a surprise). The typical flat front of a car adsorbs the energy of collision, resulting in lots of damage to your car. A low sloped nose simply redirects that energy upwards instead of absorbing it, resulting in little to no damage to the car.
