Bumper modifications

Hi all,

We recently purchased a 1994 Chevy Caprice station wagon. I'm getting ready to do some aero mods, like a grill block, smooth wheel covers, roof rack delete, gap filling, replacing the (broken) factory air dam, etc.

However, I'm also considering modifying the front bumper. The factory bumper has a distinct "lip" that protrudes from the bottom of the bumper (see attached pics). I could easily cut this off, as it's thin plastic and there's nothing structural underneath. It would seem that doing so would smooth up the front of the car considerably.

Can you all think of any problems this may cause? Or should I go ahead and do it?

-Sam
