    MTech II Front Valance, will it fit US Plastic Bumper?

    I was wondering if the original MTech II front and rear lower bumpers will work with the US plastic bumpers?

    Thanks, Mario

    Yes. Front is a cover. Rear is bumper and valance.

      I was looking at this original MTech II from Schmiedmann, I want to keep the US bumper with the black trim.

        Yes you can run that or a replica on the front with your regular late model bumper.

        The rear will have to be a replica and it looks nice under the late model bumper.

          I have a replica rear and it fits pretty good, but the side skirts are replica also and they don't fit good.

          So with a new original front valance and side skirts I be good.

          Thank you guys for the info.

            You won't be running original side skirts without the door cladding.
            They are meant to be installed only with the side cladding and will needs LOTS of work to look like your replica skirts.
            Stick with what you have and just get a front valance.

              oh, good to know, I was thinking I could mount the OE skirts without the side panels.

              Well now I know what to do.

              Thank you very much for your help.
