i figured out today why i don't like your gt valance on tha car. it needs the skirts and then even with it looks funny since most gts were hatchs or convertibles.

I like the front valance. I do agree, they look weird with the whole gt side skirts and all...I think if I lowered it, it wouldn't stick out as much.
