In regards to the front lower valance you're looking for, Mavericks and Comets share the same one for 70 thru 72. The parking light/turn signal you described is not a part of the valance at all - but rather they hang down from the bumper, and are absent on cars with turn signals mounted in the grille. Good luck trying to find one though, most of the ones I've run across in the junkyard have been damaged.
: Well,I have been told that they are the same by everyone,But the armrest is definately not the same,Its really hard to explain,would be easier if you looked at it..I have a pic of the comet's door scanned,I can email it to you if you give me your email address.Okay,on the comet,the door panel has woodgrain and an emblem in the middle of it,And on the arm rest there is a hand grip.On the maverick the armrest dosent have this hand grip,or the wood grain and the emblem in the middle.The maverick is a 70 model,and the comet is a 72 comet GT.Also,im looking for a front valance,The lights are molded in the grill on the comet,On the maverick there are lights in the top of valance,not in the grill.Have any ideas?
: : I didn't realize that they are different on a '70 than a '72. I know that the '73-'77s are different from the '72 and older models. So what's the difference?...

: : : Because I allready have one white one in good condition,The drivers side armrest and door panel is gone.I have a 70 maverick for parts,but The door panels and armrest are made different on it.
