hMmm... Maybe I should take the rear bumper off and send it to the shop with the valence.

Looks good man....if you dont mind me asking, what was the total cost for everything including install and paint?

I think I paid around $300 for the valence and $300 for the tips. I paid a co worker to paint the valence for $75 and I installed it by myself with some help from 2 buds.

Where did you get the valence from? I found some on the net but they want like 5-600 for it..

Not bad at all! Please post the finished pics when you get a chance!

Here are (some) pics of it installed. I got her all cleaned up and it started to rain and most of the pics came out shitty from the overcast so I decided to post some pics of the front as well.

I need to adjust the tips again. I change my exhaust so often that it isn't funny. I guess it has it's benefits working for an exhaust manufacturer!

The tips need to be moved in about a 1/2" and up about an 1/8"

What a great job, looks awsome.

just shift the whole works to the right about 3/16" and i think you got it.

The one pic of the back almost straight on was actually taken from a slight angle so the tips do appear to be to one side but they aren't.

IMO, the tips are to far out since you can see in front of lip of the tip which looks stupid when you are behind the car looking down.

Thanks! The car has been one big project after the other and I have spent many late nights getting things done just so that I can drive it everyday!

when you said "in" you meant in under the bumper more, got it. looking back i see that isnt quite a straight on shot.

i agree, some cars just look perfect with this setup, but ive seen others that i didnt care for for some reason. havent figured out why yet.

**SSNAKEATER23** · 03-31-2009, 08:56 AM

**LETHALxLS1** · 03-31-2009, 07:35 PM

That looks mean as hell. I like the black "berger"(sp?) panel on that car also. Very nice.

**Sommer86@6LE** · 06-11-2009, 09:13 PM

Car looks great, man!! I took it a step further and blended in the valance...
