Default Loder 1899 rear Valence

What do people think about the Loder 1899 rear valence?
I am thinking of replacing the one on the XF to this.

I wouldn't bother. Also, it looks a bit like the valances on SUVs. XF is not a SUV. If you want a different look for the rear, I would consider having a body shop paint the black valance body color.

Default Color match the Body

It would look better to have the stock valance removed and just have it painted to match the body. Much simpler. The valance on my SC is painted to match like on the XFR and it really completes the rear view. Second remove the mud flaps, not improving the aerodynamic look with black rubber flaps. I was considering the XFR trunk spoiler. Get one and have both painted.

Since you're in Hong Kong, I got a set of these sent from China on Ebay and they are really nice for $53.00 US.
Maybe they are in town.


I also went all out and got these metal valve stem caps for $6.00 on Amazon.



Seriously, I vote for color matching valance and a spoiler.
