Valance: On or Off
 

cant decide for myself, id like to have the tow hooks back on the front just because but than i like the way it looks with the valance, dont want to cut it up though

note-i will be using regular 4x4 tow hooks not LVL 2 tow hooks

Off... looks good!

off

it dont look bad at all with it off. just get a skid plate or diamond plate valance

easier said than done.....

I personally think it looks better with the valance on... i've never been a huge fan of the no valance look. The valance just makes the truck look "finished" so to say, and smoothes out the front.

Off man!!!

Well it's your call. The valence is smaller on that year truck and it's less noticible. I can't stand it when the 01+ trucks don't have a valence... looks booty-fab to me. I think it looks fine off, and I think it looks good on too... decisions decisions.

NEATHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


01+ front valance and bumper is a must!!!!!!!!!!1

You make a really good point. I don't like mine off. Although I do like interceptors off, and I like n3elz off, just b/c he's Mr. Griggs though.


Zach, you have a VERY good point. Get that edge bumper/valance homie!!!

urs doesnt look bad off.
it might be because i HATE the look of a valance with fog light holes and no light, that looks so crapy IMO

off

yea but just an idea

i say off i have mine off and love love, but mines a 97.

not just edge even a regular one would look fine on his!

Exactly what I was going to say!

Yep, if you dont have fog lights there dont worry about even having the valence- like somebody else mentioned, just fab up a nice skidplate.

well my truck originally had the valance with no holes because it didnt have fog's but i got this one for 20 bucks so i threw it on and i kinda liked the way it looked, now im just debating on function vs. looks........i think im going to take it off and look at it for awhile.....

I say it looks better off, you know of any good places to go off roadin in Virginia Beach or Norfolk area, we should meet up sometime and go.

Looks Better with the valance off

on....and add foglights...

off

ok well i took it off just now and painted everything behind it flat black, ill post up some pics tommorrow

mudranger, ya ive got a few places that i know of, some are pretty much all mud which im trying to stay away from just cause i cant stand having to clean the **** off but i know of someother places, def let me know if ya ever feel the need to go out, do you ever go down to obx????????

oh and does anyone know how to get a license plate holder off of a 98-00 ranger???? im curious as to what mine would look like if i took it off but im not sure as to how to get it off, thinking of moving it to the side, similar to someone elses truck on here.....

I know the LP holders on the '01's are a royal pain in the butt to get off. All I can tell you is, patience is key! Leave the valance on.
