Default CME combo that youve never seen

In transition mode to getting the 6LE CME on. Currently removing my quad tips and valence but thought it would be cool to show this combo while It was still on the car. Ive never seen it before so figured it would be something cool to show and put on the record books. I think it looks kind of cool. My girlfriend is telling me to leave it as is but already paid for my 6LE valence and have always wanted it so Im going to install the 6LE valence as planned. Comments are welcome

I've seen this combo before on a couple cars (I've seen some really ghetto cars), looks like garbage.

Who made that valence originally? Ive seen it plenty of times, seems like its usually on LT cars though. I just don't care for the way it flares out at the bottom, if it didn't do that it'd be a lot better, and its also like the only CME style you can run with ground effects on the rest of the car. Yours would look a helluva lot better if the tips actually tucked up right though.

More like welcome back from the Dark Side!!!! I'm with crimson bird, the way it flares out reminds me of some rather large women I've seen at WalMart!! Seriously the 6LE version will look great compared to that. As for the girlfriend, your on your own!!! Post pics when your done!

Thanks guys. The quad set up will be for sale. Reason why my tips sit so low now is I had the exhaust shop do it like that so I can fit the 6le valence so when it's ready to mount.

i think this is the Ultra Z version and you are correct it does come with the rest of the ground effect and looks tons better.

This one was made by SLP I'm sure of it. I think it just looks funky because of the tips.

Ditto. The alignment is pretty off.
