chin splitter/spoiler

Has anyone ever seen or heard of a sport coupe (no gfx) having a chin spoiler or splitter much like the second gen camaro? I'm considering making or buying one and making it fit it as I'm going without gfx and think it would somehow help with the look of the lower transition between bumper and fender. And possibly help cooling. Pics, info, opinions, anything would be great. Thanks

Building one for my Firebird. The sides still need to be extended to the edge of the wheelwells. It's braced with aluminum struts etc. It's probably not completely functional as a splitter as it has 4-5"of ground clearance, but the car still needs to be streetable. Thoughts/predictions?

Re: chin splitter/spoiler

Interesting for sure. I thought GTA's had a piece that went across the nose but just alittle farther back from where you mounded it. Is there more of a benefit if its farther up where you put it?
