I am looking to buy the Auto Atlanta 91450300910GRV rear fiberglass valance for the GT flair installed cars.
I did a search and just wanted to know if anyone had purchased one of these and their opinion on fit, quality and looks on the steel fender equipped GT type cars. Are these the best or is there another vendor you would recommend and why? Thanks |

I had one from AA that someone gave me. A lot of work required if you want it to blend nicely to the contours of your flares. And I mean a LOT. I didn't use it.
I got one from Patrick; still needs some glass work on the ends but a way better starting point. A lot of people would leave it as is and honestly it would look fine. I had a set of Marty's headers for my 2.2 engine and they are phenomenal. If his valance is anything like that quality I'd look there too. And Marty is fantastic to deal with. I can't find any good shots of the valance but here's a couple showing the union to the flares after a bit of extra shaping. ![]() ![]() |

Experience tells me never to purchase anything from Automobile Atlanta. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
