Default anyone convert side "gills" from US to Euro style?

Hi, been a while since i've posted. I'm interested in having my body shop remove the side-markers and extend the air intake gills to the height of the Euro bumper, as it's being repainted anyway.
Anyone ever try this and is there a down-side to doing that vs. buying the Euro "skin" from one of the distributors?

I think all you need is a Euro bumper cover. A few NA car owners have done this.

the bumper covers run about $900, unpainted. Thought this might be an inexpensive way to go, having them modify the existing air intakes.
