it was abit of a pain to do but the plastic that you cut off of the bumper is then re-used as plastic weld filling so you can say you recycled when your done 
right i dont really have a step by step on how to modify the lower half as i just went at it for a laugh with a saw etc but it got to a point i thought it looked good and kept it here is the lower half mate.
basically see the vent on the lower bumper, i cut the very bottom of that off which left me with the gap in the bottom bumper, it left to flaps i bent up and plastic welded into place
then with the section of plastic you cut out the bottom you use a pair of scissors and cut it to shape and plastic weld it into shape. i done mine by sanding and plastic welding in the low bits so not to use filler. that way you dont need to fanny about with filler however a coat of high build primer does the trick
to mount the splitter i used galvanised bolts and washers by lining up the front edge of the splitter with the bumper and drilling through both the bumper and the splitter (on the back of it where you wont see the bolts ) and then use galvanised bolts and washers to mount it. you will also need to take off about 10 inches of plastic at either side but cut that to fit once everythings bolted up.

Wow, amazing work
i nearly drove myself mad by trying to fill the dents in with plastic weld to try and remove the need for filler. mind you i was as high as a kite anyway so
