    Looking good guys! Why didn't you remove that balancer from the driveshaft though?
    I have one more that was balanced with out the balancer. Might use that one.
    Have not decided yet. It's a bit more silent with it.

    Just checking, when I put my mtech 1 front valance on, the only place I can see that it attaches to the stock sheet metal valance is at the brake ducts, is this correct?
    Currently it is not attached there, but it feels really solid

    Also why did you cut the metal valance? For intercooler piping?
    Mine fit without cutting.

    Lastly, do you have a picture of how the fog lights mount to the rear of the front valance? Are they molded into the plastic, or fiberglassed in?
    Mine is missing the pieces at the back that hold the actual foglight

    thanks :)
    Can take some pictures for you next week.

    It's a sleeve it sits over the existing housing. Same job as Ground Control or any other vendor.

    Did you have the erinforcement plates made or are they off the shelf?
    They are made by AKG Motorsports. Ready to weld in. Not very expensive either.
