So I need some advice (for the newbie). I finally got around to posting pictures of my car, that I've had since December 04, on the nailed link above. Attached is a rear view and what I believe is a monza exhaust. Is there a valance that is available and will accomodate the dual exhaust pipes?
Thanks T Attached image(s)

I have never found one. I saw some guy cut down and it looked lousy.

No there isn't one with two notches. Factory valances all have single notches. So you could use one of those, and just fiberglass the notch away. Or, you could do what I am going to do: get rid of my obnoxiously loud monza and go OEM or triad.

Thanks everyone. Seems like a new exhaust system is in order or no valance but that looks odd to me.

You could do something like this.
I cut the dual tips off and put on a pair of stainless tips and installed a (no notch) valance. Attached image(s)

Here's a picture of one I modified for an ANSA I had on the '72 1.7 circa '79. The car is long gone but I kept the valance.
I bent steel brake line to fit the contours of the openings I cut and brazed them onto the valance. Measuring for the openings took longer than the fitting and welding. Still only spent 2-3 hours on the whole project. Good luck with yours! Attached image(s)
