    Valances

    I have an 87 325 4dr. I am looking at my options for front valances. Do late model valances bolt up on early model cars? Whats a reasonable price for one?

    yes they do, while youre at it you can tuck the diving board bumpers too.

    Most late model valances can go up to 100-125shipped.

      You will need to cut off your tow hooks.

            You can get em aftermarket too. Check out auto body part suppliers like "Parts Channel" and "PAC auto parts", they are in SoCal but might ship. Worst case, Ive seen OEM new ones at the stealerships too.

                        See my sig for the early "is" valance. The early "es" valance is the same except the two bottom middle cutouts are filled in.
