My front valance wasn't mounted anyway near the way it's supposed to be so does anybody have some pics on how the valancepanel sits on the radiatorsupport?

Per, there should be a bar that runs across from what I remember. That's what the bottom bolts on the valance bolt to. However, I don't have a picture to show it and my valance isn't on my Charger right now. I'll try to get it mounted today. This is all going off by memory though so I'm hoping someone can confirm this. Anyways, in the meantime until someone posts a picture, here's the bar.....

Per,
The picture that OttawaCharger has posted shows the valance mounted correctly. I gets attached to the lower tie bar on the rad support.

The cross bar that Cody has posted is for the bumperettes. It gets mounted above the valance (inside), to both of the main bumper brackets. The bumperettes then go thru the large oval holes in the valance, & get bolted to the cross bar.

this different perspective might help.

30%, or semi-gloss black, like the rest of the bumper brackets.

Looks like I'm ready to install my front valance. :icon_smile_big:
