Default V6 Carbon Fiber Valance

Hi all,

I've owned my F type for a shorter period of time, but recently installed the OEM CF valance. I don't have the vision package, and was able to source a part with parking sensors. I got lazy and cheap and didn't plug in sensors, but will probably plan to do so later. I didn't see a lot of pics (because who wants to pay the OEM price for this rediculous part??) so I figured I'd post.

It was very simple to install, 4 bolts on the underside by the exhaust, the main difference is the mounting points for the rear fog lights are different on the CF than the regular valance - I found that quite odd. I had to use a different torx bolt and shim with some plastic washers to make the 2 shots. There are 3 total, so only 2 sides are fastened for each lamp.

Looks good!

I've been running an R diffuser without the parking sensors as well. I thought I was going to do something about it...its been 6 months and I forgot they are still unfilled lol.

Thanks guys. Not much to note, but I also wrapped the front splitter and rear wheel well arches with carbon fiber wrap.
