Yea it was fiberglass I'm sure.

BTW- I should mention the valence he didn't make, - he modified a valence that was made for our trucks. I'm trying to find the thread, but I don't think it was a factory valence. It was after market fiberglass valence that he customized.

I'd be interested to see it if you come across it.

It's only getting worse. Lots of the veterans seem to be moving over to shelbys or raptors. When a performance market minded vehicle hits a certain price level, the riff raff moves in.
Heck, I'm there. That's gotta be a sign things are cheap.


Everything is pricy but one deal I got this summer was too good. 90mm maf, intake w/ 2 open element filters, I/C hard lines, I/C reservoir, and I/C pump for $165 shipped

and the parts are only getting even more scarce. In a few years replacement parts will be ridiculous..some are already discontinued.
