How are you guys making these fit? I've read a few people have hammered it down to try and make it match but the finished result still doesn't look right. AMD says they are redesigning the part but won't be ready for 6 months.

Take it to a sheetmetal shop and form it with a press brake. Tim

Who's end caps are you using?, perhaps that's the issue?


.....I got my rear valance from Year One (vendor unknown), and the end caps from Year One also...nice fit

It's all AMD.
The corners are damn near perfect compared to my

I put AMD parts on a customers 68 Charger RT a couple years ago. I had to do lots of hammer and dolly work! My pics are stuck on my crashed laptop at the moment so i can't post pics.
