Do to the lack of good metal valances available, I am considering fiberglass. Does anyone have experience with these? I'm concerned with strength, fitment, etc. Any words of wisdom will be appreciated. Or if anyone has a decent front and or rear valance they would be willing to part with, I am interested.
Thanks, John |

Metal is best, but you only have stock options.
Big difference between a (front) valance and a dam, fiberglass valance holds up just fine as long as you don't bash it into a curb. A race dam for street won't last long, although there's a dam with a heavy rubber bottom section that will work on the street if you take care. |

The rubber is more of a race application. We made the fiberglass in a double layup and is strong enough to support the rubber. We are doing another run on these in the next few weeks. I love mine. It make the front look more aggressive especially on my 75. Mark Attached image(s) ![]() |
