    Valance options for Euro bumper swap?

    Maybe I am dumb, but I just can't figure out what options for a valance I have.

    Here is my situation. I have a '90 vert with the diving boards. I bought some euro bumpers used and I haven't installed them yet but I just can't figure out which valances I should be looking at for my car. Or, maybe the current valance would look just fine as is?

    Sorry if this has been discussed but I couldn't find a definitive answer.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I have seen people use the standard US valance but it doesn't look right IMO since there is no place for the fog lights.

      Yes you can use your current valance. But there will be small gaps under the bottom sides. For the euro one, you'll need the 86-87 valance since you have an oil cooler. Also your lip will work with it since they both share the same lip.

        JasonC, awesome, thank you so much. That is the exact information I was looking for and also to know that I can use my lip too is good.

        So the early one like this, right?

          Did you ever install this? Would you mind sharing the part number?


          Thanks!
