    Its rainy here...so the valance looks darker than it really is. Its just the shadows. My bumper doesnt line up with it exactly because its a cheap aftermarket bumper that stops about an inch shorter than the oem one. Gonna have to find a Toyota chrome front bumper to make it flush.

    Can't notch an inch off the stock mounts and have the front of the bumper move back to line her up?

    I dont think so. The valence and the fender both stop at the same place. The bumper is just short. The valence is bolted to it perfect and its an inch longer than the bumper.

    The body shop that painted and installed it for me told me its because its an aftermarket bumper.

    Damn sorry I didn't look close enough to see that the valence did indeed stick out. Next time I'll hold my tongue! haha.

    Its by the fender where it doesn't line up perfect...not bad...just need the right bumper and it will all line up straight, Fender, bumper, valance.
