It would grow on me.

What kind of modifications are required to make this work?

Seen it in person.

Lets just say pics and angle make it look better. In person, it looks like a peice of rubber molding sticking out like a goatee on a car it doesn't belong on.

I've always like the original mach 1 lip, ....thought they were more of a straight edge, I like those a lot!! but not sure on the fox.

If done right, they can look decent. Honestly though I wouldn't ever hang anything lower than the front bumper on my car. Even if you managed to avoid all the parking curbs and squirrels out there, it would make getting a jack under there a huge PITA. It's already hard enough on a lowered Fox. JMO.

I installed one of these on a customers 04. He didnt want to leave it flat black so we painted it gloss black for him and a week later I was redoing it because he ran it up on a curb in a parking lot and tore it up.

Looks like buck toothed farm boy. Doesn't flow well w the square fox. Looks like when your bigger older cousin gives you a hand-me-down sweater and its too big but you wear it anyway. Ps: its a chin not a lip

Wondering how much that would interfere with the air foil that diverts cold air into the engine bay to assist with cooling, as the purpose of that chin spoiler is to divert air around the car and not under it.

I have one on the 95, it runs just a tad hotter but nothing serious. As far as diverting air around its nit that functional
