Hey nyc6, I personally do not have any experience with this type of setup, but knowing how the Euro front bumper setup works, I kinda doubt it [-X

Reason is, the Euro front "bumper" is really a bunch of chrome cover plates and rubber impact strips that bolt onto the Euro front air dam, not like the US setup at all :-k

The US front air dam (which I presume you are referring to, when you say "front valance"), attaches under the "diving board" bumper via a set of 6 or so brackets that bolt up to the framework underneath, nothing like the Euro setup at all [-(

Not sure where you're going, short of having these parts and are trying to use them, but I surmise that you haven't received any responses because this just ain't gonna work :-({|=

my car has the short euro valance and looking for something better.

i dont like how the bigger euro valance curves on the corners which is why i was trying to see if the U.S one can be fitted.
