3D Carbon Rear Valance

Thought I share this with everyone.

This has to be the best pictures of a grabber orange mustang with the 3D carbon body kit(not the boy racer one). I am actually considering that rear valance more now to go with the steeda front bumper.

Funny thing though is the seller is saying it is a foose kit.. so dumb..

I have one of those painted and ready to go on my can, but haven't yet installed it. Very good quality piece. The instructions have you cut out the bumps around the exhaust pipe openings.

It's weird, actually, there's two different instruction sheets out there, one that mentions it, one that doesn't. I asked 3DCarbon and they said for best fitment you need to cut.
It's a bit of a touchy process installing, so haven't gotten around to it yet.

My advice, actually, is if you're going to the trouble of getting it painted, just get the Ford CS rear end, and replace the entire bumper -- it'd be a lot easier.

That is an awesome looking piece however I agree with going with the CS valance. There is more to get painted, but the look is very similar and probably easier to install.

And I imagine will hold up better in the long run, this piece is taped and screwed into place here and there, but nothing like a solid single bumper. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle...
