I bought a Goodmark repro and it required about 3 hours of 'massaging' to get it to fit by my bodyshop

I have sold lots of rear valances. had really no complaints to speak of. I would use them. The only problem that i have heard of is when quarters are put on and they did not fit the rear valance before welding and brought the bottom of the quarters in to far.

Watch out for the way they are stamped. I have one on the rear of my car. The dual exhaust cut outs are not centered from either end (about 3/16" difference, not noitcable). What was really off on mine was the bumper cut outs for the bumper guards. I had to oval out the upper bolts about a 1/4" to the right on both of them to get them to line up with the slots & leave the lower bolts out since they no longer line up.
