    Got front valance installed, now thinking I need a rear valance and maybe sideskirts for my diving board bumpers. Looked at Abraham, but I don't see what I need. Please be specific. Thanks!

      I would like this if it wasn't ridiculously priced.

        Check me. So from my understanding, my diving boarded 86 can be easily bolt on converted to the smaller euro chrome or sport painted bumpers, and the late plastic bumpers require the hard work? ALSO, if I bolt on the euro (international) chrome bumpers, can i easily install some sort of technic kit?

          yes, yes, yes but it's going to be hard to find one and also it requires expensive, partially-NLA bumper trim.

              What diving board rear plastic valances would be reasonable?

                Mtechnic 1 for euro bumpers
                Mtechnic 2 for plastic bumpers

                  Convertibles can use Mtechnic 1 or 2 without problems

                        Any pictures? And how good was this fit up? This is actually a really good idea if the body lines match pretty well.

                                I had it on my divingboard sedan and later threw it on the plastic bumper coupe. It looked a lot more natural on the coupe though. Also I'd take better pics but I sold both and picked up a cabrio!
