The valance clips onto the existing valance, below the bumper.
IIRC (haven't got 'round to doing mine yet) the wheel arch lips of the MTech2 valance stand slightly proud of the standard bumper, but other than that there aren't any issues.
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

see the article i wrote on how to fit it, you do not need the tech 2 bumper but the tech 2 lower valance will sit slightly proud of the bumper where it joins the front wheel arch.... if you are anal like me i could not live with it...if you are not arsed then no worries!!

the article is now on the incomplete wiki section but if you pm me an address i will send you it as a
Word file.... some day i will get round to editing the wiki file...but not today
