    Valence Swap > Bumper Swap

    Put a late rear valence on my '87. Already had a late front valence. Also removed the spring pads front and rear.

    This is how I purchased it for reference:



    Rear valence:



    Then I threw on the BBS spoiler that just didn't look good without a valence:






    I'm not a great photographer, but I am pretty happy with how the car is looking these days. :) Staggered BBS RS replicas coming soon.

    Those wheels changed alot. The "look" just came out after you put them on.

        Very nice. Very old-school look, with those wheels and spoiler.

            I've had the wheels for about 2 years. I just sold them actually. No plastics for this car.

                  you know, I really like the divingboards w/ the valences under them. With a tuck it might look a bit cleaner though.

                          I really like that.. I love '88 IS anyway, but with the high wheel arches, your car is pretty freaking cool.

                            db's are tucked all the way in. I don't have the welding skills, so I used some short sheetmetal screws. She's on there very solid and it really wasn't all that difficult.
