Default NE1 have this rear valance?

Or have seen it done on a US spec car? I really want to get it but don't know if it'll fit.

Default Eurospec...like wnut said it's too short.

You can make it fit, but if you don't want to fiddle with it then get something that fits US cars. The JE piece I believe is fiberglass, any competent body shop can extend it and recontour it. It'll just cost you though.

Default Actually, it's the same one that's made for Euro spec....

Wayne at A1 had to do extensive work on the internals of my OEM bumper just to get it to fit half-way decent. If you look closely, it is short on both sides where it meets the fender.

Rapid Parts said they've never had fitments problems with this piece. LLTek is or is going to carry the valance and they say they're going to make sure it fits the US spec cars without a problem.

Hope this helps! Email me if you have ?s.

Default I need a new upper bumper anyway, where can I get a Euro spec one?

And is the bumper skin the only thing I need or do I need to change the internals too?

From what I understand it's NOT just the skin. It's the internals too.
