Anniversary valance
« on: 27 February 2013, 23:02 »
Right guys, been on the hunt for a genuine front for about a year. Can't find one, well that's not silly money anyway.

What reps are you guys using and can you provide links. Has to be abs plastic and a pretty good fit!

I know they're mostly crap but that's why I asked for people to provide links to ones that are a good fit.

Front or rear?

Just hunt around in the classifieds, you'll normally get a half decent one for maybe a £100?  :undecided:

I don't want a 4mo! And I've already said front!

I've seen pictures of a lot of cars on here and a lot if them have anni fronts. Wether they're a copy or gen is another question though.

Keep your hair on, my point was you dont see a lot of 2nd hand valances around, be it an anni a 4mo or whatever and you might just have to bite the bullet and get a new one and pay a bit extra.

You wont get much help with an attitude like that.

There's an Anniversary being broken on Edition38, and another on eBay. You're more than likely too late to get the valance, but it's worth a shot.

Who's not keeping their hair on? I don't care about you buying a 4mo valance in all honesty! It's no help to me is it!  :laugh:
