i have some unfortunate news. The spoiler, no matter how i fit it has a 3/4" gap by 18" on the pass side and about a 1" gap by 18" on the drivers side. I tried it on a spare valance I had kicking around and same thing. I've told this to randy and he's been kind enough to refund my money and he's gonna try and buy a new front valance and work on another spoiler. I told him I still wanna buy it when he gets the fitment right, So he's gonna keep me in the loop...

Just out of curiosity, but from your post it seems like you indicated that you were trying to mount this just to an un mounted valance. Is that correct? The valance really should be mounted to the car and adjusted properly as there is quite a lot of flex to them. If you had then disregard. I just am surprised that a produced product would be that far off.

sorry, but I had tried to mount it on my car, as well as the spare valance I had kicking around, the one he had used was a used valance - I dunno, he tried it on his and confirmed that the fitment wasn't what he wanted, refunded my money and is back at the drawing board. I'll keep you guys posted when the next one comes out...
