The rear valance had a tack weld and also bolts.



Instead of studs on the valance Dynacorn used 2 different size bolts and washers from inside the trunk and attached to clips on the valance



We wanted to take off the rear valance to see what was behind it and just as I thought bare metal and surface rust
