Default What are the dimensions for our bumper/air dam

I have my brother willing to build me a custom front air dam for our bumpers, but wondering what are the dimensions for our bumpers, the length of every bend, and the correct angle if possible. Just wondering if someone has already went through the pain and suffering before me.

It will probably be 2-3in long and will follow the angles and bends of the bumper.

Wouldn't an air dam be more effective under the core support instead of the bumper?

I am getting rid of the fornt air dam to replace it with the one I am building so I need the angle of the bends for the bumper to match it up properly, I got the length of each bend, the length is around 82 inchs, the bends from the center are 20 1/2, then 12 1/2 then that leaves 8 inchs left.
