#25249, "need some help finding some non-2GNT parts...."


          

So I been looking and lookin for a front and rear bumper (I think they also call them a valance?) for a '78 grand prix... A friend of mine inhearited the car from their father and I been helpin out for a while cuz it's a close friend and the thing has a lot of sentimental value to them. If any one would by any chance know where something like this is sitting let me know, the midwest don't have much left layin around any more.

Creative thinking? Ingenuity? Hell, It's just an obsession!



99 Eclipse GS turbo: MSpowered, everything custom built, 223.8 HP-199.8 TQ @8psi through auto-tranny. The first time around...

Don't sell your car to 16 year olds...

The valence is typically the spoiler type material that gos below the bumper or right in front of the hood above the bumper. The valence name was used slightly differnetly depending on manufacturers, I have never heard a bumper called a valence though.
