The original steel rear valance has a groove or track that the rubber slips into. the rubber will be located between the rear valance and rear bumper. A lot of people suggest leaving the rubber weatherstrip off . I was told it collects moisture and dirt in the metal groove and holds it causing rust.
see the groove , the rubber slips into it .
