Trimmed front valence

I trimmed the front valance on my 4runner today in preparation for my BFGs that will be in tomorrow. should look even better with the new 33-10.50s. What do y'all think?

Looks great... I wish I could do something like that with my 3rd generation, but I don't think it would be forgiving with the Limited front/lights.

A+

Looks much better than how I just yanked mine off and threw it in the garbage

Holy Crap! That's awsome. What did you use to cut your valance? I need to trim mine up as well and that's very clean and nice looking. It's almost like adding a winch bumper w/out paying the money.

It looks good from the front. I was expecting it to not look so good from the sides but your pictures just proved that theory wrong. If my valence wasn't already bent up I would do the same thing.

Thanks I appreciate it. I actually did it on a lift after I lowered the front end a little b/c those Downey T-bars are so stiff. Looking at it on the rack I thought it didn't turn out very well. But it looks pretty good now that its on the ground.

Thats one of the reasons i did mine was b/c it was bent on both sides, but trimming it like i did i actually cut out boyh dented sections.
