Default FINISHED!!!!

Yeah!!!! I finally finished my valance swap. I started yesterday at 10:30 in the morning and worked until 3:20 p.m. today. It was a pain in the butt. Getting the valance off was easy but then my dad and i had to cut and check cut and check. That took us almost 4 hours. Then we ended up taking off the bumper to fix it. So then we had to use some new bolts because the others wouldnt fit. The valance had to bent alot. Another pain was putting the bumper back on with the new valance already put on. Took me another 2 hours. But i finally finished. If you have this or want to get it be ready for some work.

to me that mod is not worth the effort for the hole in your vallance look. You did a great job though, sounds like some hard work.

Looks great . I like the look . A+ for your Dads help. Did you have to cut much to get it fit.
