Nice , i also have a AF 990, Ill be doing the same thing, so could you please post exactly how you made these.
thanks
I measured the outside length of the valence, then the height of the inside of the top of the valence to the bottom of the cabinet where the wall meets the window wall.
I took those measurements (39.5 x 30 If I recall correctly) and bought blackout material and the camo pattern. I added a little extra for the sides hence the 39.5" width.
I then stitched them together. Then sewed velcro (opposite side as to what is on the inside of the valence) so the curtains will hang like your existing ones do.
I bought the camo on sale at 8.00/yd. regular camo price is about 30.00/yd so can get expensive. Blackout is expensive but if you can go to a curtain making place they may have scraps you can buy for cheap.
For the vent cover I did the same but used snaps.
