One problem with that. The front and and sides will be visibly lowered by the new front end and side skirts. It will look off balance if I don't do something to lower the back end visibly as well, will it not?

I think it would not look right in the back with the stock rear bumper cover....but thats just me. If you lower the rear only that might help a little but the dimensions will be the same for the rest of the parts added to the front and sides...so will it work? Not sure I would guess to say that wont work either.....

Yeah. Based on SaddleUps pics the Street Scene Rear Valence balances it out pretty well. If I go with the GT Rear Valence, I'll still have to cut a hole in my V6 Bumper for the exhaust. Is this okay? I don't want it to look crappy but I'd like to save the money that it would cost me to buy a GT rear bumper. I was basing it off of the fact that the valence should cover the cutting and it will look flawless. Should this be okay?

I know members that have cut holes in the v6 bumper and it looked like it was supposed to look that way.....the duals draw my attention and the exhaust tips the hole well is just that a hole!

Thanks for all the info. Shella's car was a huge help. I don't know if you remember, but when I first started looking into this I was stuck on the C-Series Front End. I knew it was out of my price range but I couldn't get it out of my mind. I was just about to give up when I saw her car in the little picture links at the top of the forums page. I figured I would check it out and all the ideas came from there. I owe a lot to her in getting this done...
