Wow, I did a search on locomotive cow catchers. I think that's a look that might catch on with customized cars! Heh! That's a third option and a really interesting one! I don't think I've ever seen anyone do a front air dam like that!
So I guess the question is which would be best:
1.) Shark Nose, pointed bumper, like a bullet.
2.) A 90 degree flat front air dam, like a snow plow but flat.
3.) A cow-catcher bumper, where the air dam points down, towards in front.
4.) I'm also seeing a lot of air dams here on ecomodder where there are thin strips, even lawn edging, somewhat offset or behind the bumper, and under it.
I've seen shark nose bumpers and I've seen flat snow plow bumpers here on ecomodder, but I am very curious about a cow-catcher bumper. It would catch the air and bring it up and over the hood of the car. But I have no idea. Perhaps I should test, but I wouldn't be the best person for that job. Which would be best?
