Pictures of 2001 to 2005 Rangers without valance
I'm thinking of removing my truck's front bumper valance for more clearance while off roading and for the looks of it. I'm wanting to see some pictures of other 2001 to 2001 rangers with it removed! I'm just worried that it'll show too much rust...I have josh's RCI skid plate on my truck

I would be more afraid of the radiator over rust.

Thanks! That pic really helped! How hard is it to taken off and approximately how long did it take?

Just some bolts at the top of the valance, like ten or twelve . It's really simple

I got into a fender bender in my 06 and instead of replacing my whole bumper for +$300 I can get an 01 valance for much less. Do any of you know if it is compatible with my truck especially with a body lift? Oh and I need new bumper relocation brackets as well. Sorry if I am threadjacking here.
