What an incredibly ugly idea.

Surely there's a better way to implement what you're actually trying
to do; like firewalling the server you don't want accessed.

Even if you were going to try to do this by attacking ARP, I wouldn't
mess with the real IP stack to do it.  Couldn't you could get the same
effect by using RARP or proxy ARP?
