^ Perhaps! Maybe we can get them for like $20 a piece (I wish).

I wanna find an easier way to do it other than cutting up another valance and molding it there. I've been thinking fiberglass but I don't know how well it's gonna work. Another idea I've been toying around with is using wood. I'm about 80% sure the wood idea will work but I don't know how well.

wooden valence ftw. I meant like buy one valence and share it. I'm not even sure if I'd be motivated enough to shave the valence and make it look right.. I've never done anything like that. looks good thoughh

We could do that. I'm not sure if you have to cut at a certain spot to fit the opening perfectly.

not really knowing exactly what yer talkin about, the silver things a few posts back that aledelic won for like $4 are chrome exhaust turndowns. people use them when shaving the rear valence, so the exhaust doesn't melt it. like this:
