Default FVD dual exhaust (left) valence- fit 'n finish?

Going dual.
Some aftermarket fibreglas products take a lot of prep and/or don't fit well.

Anyone have this on their car? Hows the f 'n f?

Cheers.

I have an aftermarket fiberglass piece. Come to think of it, it may be FVD, since it had a 9-digit part number on it. Came with its own heat shield. Fit is excellent, no issues at all. I did the prep work before painting and had it painted professionally. 4K miles of hard driving later I'm still very happy with it.

Good man. That's exactly what I wanted to know.
Is that their muffler and exhaust tips as well?

I'm running a partially Fabspeed, partially custom system, installed by PO. Tips are also Fabspeed.

It looks to be a reflection of the red tail light coming from the top of the bumper cover.

I think it's a reflection also, I haven't noticed a gap. Won't be near the car for a couple of weeks but next time I'm up at the house I'll check... Here's an image from the other side with the stock piece, it looks the same to me...

Ignore Derek- he's intent on it not fitting for some reason. Don't think he wants me to get it- fears he may have to do the same.
