Tomorrow i am going to touch up the front with Krylon (my entire front valance is Krylon..but you would never know the difference looking at it!). Ill probably see about mounting it saturday night or sunday morning. I am not 100% sure its going to mount up right my valance. It looks straight, but if you really scrutinize it youll see just how messed up it is on the underside.

That looks cool, I think I have seen a few cars before with them but never new it was a factory item. Its almost too nice to put on the car since it still had its original package etc.

Looked over it again today and apparently this one was made in 1987. Here are a few more pictures of it..





I touched up my front valance today..going to try and mount it tomorrow morning.

sexy, how difficult does the install look like?

Techno Duck

Looks fairly simple if the car has a straight front valance. Mine isnt to great so i may need to hold off until i get a none cracked one.

Are that many bolts REALLY necessary!? LOL

If you don't mind me asking, what did you have to pay for it?

Techno Duck

potent, total cost came to just under $135 to my door.

Mounted it early today. Looks great. Was easier than i expected and would have been even easier if my front valance werent so messed up on the underside.

Fitment is good with the exception of the passenger side corner, but this is likely due to the huge amount of fiberglass repair on the backside.






And if anyone is interested, this is how its mounted. The metal brackets sandwich the lip against the lower lip of the front valance. Its defenetley alot more of a secure fit than i thought it was going to be.





My car barely clears the ramps now. Any lower than it is now and i am going to have to start using more wood to drive up on.

Can anyone believe about 75% of my front valance was painted with Krylon in my driveway.. ? I realized today my front bumper is crooked from when i drilled and compressed the bumper shocks. Need to fix that when i put the KLA tow block on next week.

I really like the red/black thing you got going so far, the lip just adds to it
Sure you don't want a rear Euro valence? I wish someone local needed one; no more NA's in the family.

Techno Duck

Steve, thanks for the offer on the valance.. but ive already got a turbo rear valance on the car...also painted with Krylon.. heh heh. My 968 mirrors i painted with Krylon also. One day my entire car will be Krylon...$6.00 touch ups that dry in 15 minutes .

I have a used rubber FOHA spoiler for 924's...apparently you need to have a reasonable lower front valence to bolt it up easily, lol...mine's all banged up!

I have one of those sitting in my garage. Never got around to installing it . . . maybe I will now . . . maybe wait and refinish the front first . . .
