The repop metal does NOT fit at the edge of the front fender. It is at a wrong angle and makes a wide gap at top as I recall.
There are a bunch of " NOS" metal valence floating around. While most of these are from the late 80's. They are actually the newer revision of the metal valence offered in 70- mid 72. The revision allows the use of " capsule" ( one piece) front lights ( clear and Amber) . Pontiac had a ton of these made as the poly valence were failing even before shipping in many cases. In some cases a unpainted one was just delivered in the trunk of a car with a broken front valence, Unpainted.
So a used/ NOS metal one you find may well be made for the newer lights/ harness Nov '72 thru '73 , but FIT well.
