    WTB - Front [diving board] bumper spoiler/valance - 87 vert

    Hi folks,
    First time posting here. Just bought an 87 vert that I havent picked up yet. Looking for guidance on fixing a few things.
    First up is the front lower valance/lip/spoiler (correct terminology??). Seller told me that the front bumper trim is missing, not sure what type of a valance/spoiler/trim that I need - supposedly there are two different type of bottom valence/spoiler/lip for pre-88 'diving board' type bumpers (??).

    Two questions
    1) Anyone has an idea what type that i need?
    2) Anyone selling one that I can buy - shipped to 14534

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

      Here is a photo of the lower valance for your car. Mine is an 87 as well.

        Thank you so much for educating me - much appreciated.

        Quick question, what is the the difference between the one in the picture - looks like has vent holes in the middle - and the ones that I have seen that are straight - no holes in the middle.

        I have been soo confused the last 5 days - you taught me something in 30 secs that I have not been able to figure out in a few days.

        Thanks my friend
        PS: how much do you think shipping is going to be - roughly

          Depends on what he means by "trim". This could be the plastic surrounds on the bumper, could be the rubber impact strip, or could be the lower lip/valance. Once you have the car in hand, let us know exactly what you need. I have a set of painted bumper trim from a '91 vert (DB bumpers) and also a couple of the lower lips that I would sell. Interested, shoot me a PM with what you are looking to spend and we can talk.

            Lower valance is the part underneath the diving boards, the black on bottom is the lip spoiler.
            I could estimate like $50 for shipping, but I would have to package it tomorrow and bring it to the post office to find out for sure.

              Also the holes are vents to allow airflow.

                Early or Late iS valences have the two or four holes.
