Default 6LE Dual Exhaust Valance

Though I should share a picture of the 6LE Dual Exhaust Valance with 4 in. Corsa Clone tips. The body shop had some issue with mounting but managed to work out the kinks. Im digging the new look.

What do you guys think?

Center of the valance has a curve in it for sure. Sucks because its such a nice design. I want to do this when I get rid of my CME

Blending the valance with the Bumper; the edges seemed rough. I dont know how someone would be able to mount without having some mods and painting the bumper and valance to blend. Original I wasnt going to paint it to give the car some contrast.

Anyways all in all great piece! Gives the car a different look from the CME. Plus I think CME are overrated!

Dont get me wrong i love the CME but when everyone wants one and usually ends up getting one it becomes the norm. The dual exhaust valance i haven't seen done so its different.

So heres some more pictures like i promised and apparently what I was hoping not to happened did.






Double sided taped started to come off only for one side. I hope the Body shop can do something about it. This was one of the issue they encountered before paint.

Looks fantastic IMO. I prefer this to the CME. I didn't think Camaros ever looked good with corsa clones, but I stand corrected.

A definite improvement over stock, and really enhances the Corsa Clones.

Looks good man. Call me an infidel or whatever but I think DE looks better than CME

I have the original fiberglass piece, which fedex kindly broke in half for me. Good thing it is fiberglass as the shop can just put it back together! Anyway it isn't on the car yet so even though your car is a different color it gives me an idea of how it will look. Not sure what tips I want yet tho. I think I'll have the shop rivet mine on so it can't come loose.
