If you're asking about the 86-87 "is" front valence I have no idea.

Awesome...thanks! Does the lip just basically snap onto the little hooks from the brackets? What is the punch used for to remove the old brackets? I do notice the brackets have some sort of posts on there. Do these lock or something? Your ride looks super clean with the lip by the way.

Yeah, the lip snaps into the brackets once the brackets have been secured. The posts are supposed to be pushed/driven into the brackets to hold/lock them in place, which is why I used a hammer and punch. They are plastic, so they don't take a ton of force, but it's much easier to use a hammer and punch than try to push it through with a screw driver. Stop driving the posts into place once they are flush with the bottom of the bracket. To remove existing brackets, simply drive the posts all the way through the bracket.Last edited by spyder918; 01-23-2020, 05:58 AM.
