ive got an 08 sport, and the front valance has that annoying (in my opinion) lip (or extension) on the bottom of the valance. i would trim it off if i knew it would look good afterwards. does anyone know a good way to do this, or what kind of business could do the work professionally? thanks
 
Use a nice sharp box cutter. I plan on doing what you want to do soon to an '08 a friend of mine owns. Cut almost to the 'corner' of the 'lip' you want to trip, then finish it off with sandpaper. Box cutters are awesome for trimming valences.
 
Heat the blade of the box cutter with a lighter or heat gun, it will slide through it like butter.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try that out. I've been doing it cold...gonna have to try the heat on the blade.
