Default Lower valance with slats

Can anyone point me to vendor that sells the lower rear valance with slats that gives the rear nice finished look? They come on the GT500

Steeda has a valance that mimics the look of the GT/CS or GT500 rear bumper cover without actually replacing the whole rear bumper cover (http://www.steeda.com/products/3d_ca...ar_valance.php). Otherwise, you might need to go to the dealer to get a complete rear bumper cover.

But for only another $100, you can get the entire GT/CS rear bumper which is identical to the GT500.... only does not have the bottom area pre-painted black. The kit you need is p/n 6r3z6320049ba and can be purchased for around $350.

I agree with Doogie65, I'd just get the real thing instead of the add on valance.

Go to your local dealership and get a price quote. Most often they are cheaper than ordering online because they don't charge you shipping fees. At least when I was buying one they were....but I got lucky and found one on the classifieds for $400 painted!

Another option is to try and find a wrecked GT500 (that pains me to say) or GT/CS on ebay or something and ask them to sell you the bumper off it.

FYI the dealer should be able to paint it for you in their collision center if they have one. When i was rear ended i got that bumper and the dealer painted it and told me since they did it, the paint has a lifetime defect/craftsmanship warranty.
