Anyone that installed the 5" fenders, what does the fender to valance overlap look like? Had mine installed and I'm not super impressed with the way mine came out. The guys installing it kept complaining that it wasn't lining up right so I'm not sure if it's the panels or the installer.

I dunno man, you might look for a different body shop lol
That valence is supposed to be ON TOP of the fender piece, not stuffed underneath it.
You can tell they goofed up because the valence is supposed to be nearly flush with your grill like the fender is.
From the install video, it appears that there's an underlying support that the valence attaches to on the corners that needs to be cut and modified to fit the two pieces correctly with each other...they may have either skipped this step or they botched that piece in the process of fitting it.

Yeah I pulled it off when I got home. I definitely don't have that support bracket they modify but my valance is tucked back in there like 2.5". If I pull it out to fit flush with the fender it doesn't connect in the front. Going to have to have someone else look at it I guess.

Yeah I'd probably recommend that route, hopefully that bracket isn't one of those parts you'll have to wait two months for.
