Default Front Valance

I was looking through a parts catalog for mustangs and i noticed there were two types of front valances. I was wondering what is the difference between the regular front valance and the R-Model Style Front Valance.

an "R" is a race apron like on my car it deletes the front bumper and adds a larger radiator opening and duct to hook up to the front brakes

It says this is designed to use the front bumper. And that it bolts on like the front valance.


It does look like the one you have on your fastback.

Here is the link to it.
