    You're right the fogs mount directly to the valance. There's also an underbelly panel.
    The mtech 1 install instructions show a metal valance. http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=161473

    I had an mtech1 but never mounted it - sold it to Aviator. So I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the US valances will interfere with the fogs. You wither modify the US valance or get a euro one with the proper fog light holes.

    Mtech1 setups were designed to work with both the original 2 piece euro valance (parts 41331916986 and 41331884353) and the 9/85-9/87 1 piece euro valances (41331933770 or 41331933772).

    Top of the mtech1 front spoiler mounts directly to the bumper but you probably know that. Not sure how the sides mount - if it's to the valance then you have your answer. There's also the underbelly bits. I think they sit between the spoiler and the metal valance, so you'll need to come up with something else if you have no metal valance.

    James Crivelone (r3v site owner) has a build thread for his mtech1 from '06-'07. There are some pics there. He's definitely using a metal valance.
