Take a look at www.lltek.com or www.tmtuning.com - both of them have a lot of options. Or you can just paint the lower trim - many have done it here and it looks great.

some guys over on fortitude bought a second OEM rear lower valance...cut out a section to fill the muffler cutout and then molded it in and painted it....it looks awesome...all the guys who have done this did it to put on a muffler with turn down tips....I have also seen it done on alot of Vw's

I have not seen anything that you can buy that doesn't have an exhaust cut-out....well...gl!

Yeah I was afraid finding what I want would be hard. And I just dont think filling it in would ever look quite right. I will have to try to find some pics

First of all, that is not my car and never was.
I would think the easiest way to fill in the rear valence is to get another and cut out part of it and mold it on.
Wheel spacers will give you the widened look.
