    What Valance?

    Hey guys, I am trying to figure out which valance this is on this car. Anyone know?

    I tried to look in the Valance Sticky but most of the pictures are blocked from my work and can't see them to match it up.

    It looks as though the DB's are tucked in as well. I am putting DB's back on my car and think this looks really good if I can just figure it out, lol. Thanks guys!

    Thats the 86 eS valance. The 87 eS/iS model has two extra holes in the middle of it.

      Thanks for the quick reply!

      I guess I need to find a stock eS valance then. Will the 86 model work on a 87 or do I need to find an 87?

        They'll both work. Just the 87 has those two extra holes and some people like it better then the one with out those. Personaly i like the one that you have pictured.

            I thought ALL eS valances didn't have those holes. I know they are there to allow air to the oil cooler and I thought e's didn't come with one.

              Thats what i thought also. But i seen some people was saying that in 87 they just had the style valance for both models. If i'm wrong, someone chime in on this...

                I bet they all had the original ES valance, and at some point, when they were destroyed, they were just replaced with the IS valance.
