Valence Removal?

So I lifted my ‘17 Platinum, and went to remove the valence and there is a wire with brackets attached the the valence.

Where/how do I relocate these?

If the brackets are those long tooth like brackets the hang down you can just take them off. They are what is known as prius catchers.
In not sure about the wires as my STX didn't have any.

I certainly hope your next post/thread is about LOW MPG.

Take the prius catchers off, I tested my MPG before and after the huge valance was removed and only noticed a .2 mpg difference. To me the cleaner look of the smaller valance outweighs the .2 mpg of the larger valance. I also went with the tremor valance which is smaller then a 2wd valance I assume your installing.
