The air dam on my Accord (and one that I tried on my Forester) were marine wrap. It would undoubtedly look better with shrink tape.

Having the grill completely blocked off was great for the first 75 miles or so, but then I started hitting hills.

Right now it seems like the easiest route is to completely cover the lower grill and put a fire blanket over my engine for the first fifty miles, but needing to stop just for that does not sound like a great plan.
