the rear valance will allways get hot its right next to the red hot exhaust how do you know what the temperature is ? is it by touchint it with your little soft hands my hands are like leather gloves from working on hot engines and exhausts so can withstand more heat than most get your self a temp probe either infrared or a gauge dont rely on your soft little hands :lol:
