    OK, Ignoring the crappy grille and the big silver trans cooler...

    ...did I ruin my valence or do you guys think it looks ok? It hit me part way through cutting that I probably should have left a couple of vertical strips. But it was too late by then. I know it sounds redneck, but I was thinking of doing some 1/4" mesh painted black behind the valence. Kind of shape it to the valence...?

    Anyway, let me know what you think (oh, and it's on jacks about a foot up in the air)...

    the mesh will help out and make it somewhat sneaky. I have two like 4-5 inch pieces cut out on mine and its barely noticeable

    See how you like it when it's on the ground before you decide anything.

    Yeah - I guess my concern too is something hitting it.

    I got the trans cooler painted...looks a whole lot better.

    I should paint the intercooler red - it would look like a tongue.
