Front Valence texture?

[THE FEZMAN]

textureing is an art, i would keep it smooth. but if you must texture it 3m makes several products that will texture it, just do your self a favor and practice a lot before trying the final product if you screw it up its a pain in the ass to fix

+1 on smooth, I hate that they're textured from the factory

If you really MUST undercoat it, I would go with 3M or DupliColor, they both make a very good product. But I would leave it smooth, looks SO much better. I detextured mine before I installed it when I did my facelift.

So when you order a new valence it comes primed and not textured or rubber coated (rolling off the showroom they were textured)..... How are you guys coating it and in what product. I want to maintain the factory look but I'm having problems finding what to use.

Thanks
