    Colorado valence for front lip?

    anyone ever tried this? i think it would look good on my 90 325i.
    if no one can think of concrete reasons that it would fail badly i think
    i may give it a go.

    i think it may look better on a non-is diving board car though.

      exactly.
      it kinda looks like those old school angled lip spoilers from cars in the 70's
      it is a bit wider than the e30 but can be cut down and put back together
      though how well i can get it to look where i put it back together is yet
      to be seen.

        Give it a shot and post picks. This could be the next 'Volvo lip' craze.

          Exactly. Same with taurus side skirts. You don't know until you try. Good thing about the newer cars if it works. There are plentiful of them for people to get a hold of.

            I was just looking at one, and I think the sides would be to short. May work on a 84-85 valance though?

              yeah it would certainly be too short on the sides but i plan to fix that with some other material ................... if i ever get my hands on the valence that is.
