Wondering what doesn’t belong here. Fiberglass rear pan hits resonator on muffler and muffler isn’t covered by the pan. Ideas?

It’s a fiberglass valance which sloppy is expected but it doesn’t hide the muffler nor fit there

The early year rear valances with the hole for the tailpipe did cover the muffler but did a great job of scooping snow and dirt; probably the reason for the later design. |
