Sorry for the delays. Between the terrible flu thats been going around, and a busy schedule trying to catch up, I have worked some one the valence but nothing significant. The shaping and sanding is tedious and the difference is minor, so I havent updated pics. I was gonig to try to mount the plug to the car to see what it looked like but im afraid to break it, lol. I will be out of town in Northern Cali Mon-Thursday of next week. Any No. Cal. Maximas up there?

I havent thrown it away, but its on the shelf for a while. I wasnt able to make it to my liking. Also the bondo kept breaking which made me have to repair and redo areas. I emailed The Presence and he gave me helpful hints on what to do. I'll take a crack at it when I have figured out a better material to use. In the meantime, I am going to work on the rear mesh grill in the lower valance of the stock bumper.

i like the look, i just dont think it will last. what if you bump something or someone bumps you then its not going to be nearly strong enough.
