Win a front valence ;)

Post by Ride_on » 08 Apr 2016 12:34 am

Right guys and girls, I have accidentally found a new front valence, seems to be fog light type for an 85, please post photos for the most deserving case. I don't think it will be suitable for anything else, unless you want to do other mods.

Its not verified or anything and seems to be incorrectly listed, only £40, England. You win the knowledge of its location :)

Would be great as a pattern for having some repair panels made if it is right

Oh well so much for trying to have a bit of fun, its with Seymour Horwell in their latest list.

PN 3287507 listed as front bumper inner. Maybe the part number is wrong.

I have brought the panel, I and going to line it up to my car to see how it fits, How long does it take to make a "copy"? i would be potentially be happy to loan it to have a copy made.....

I don't know how easy it is to do
