thats not for the part i need.


Ok I read the description wrong. (Searched "635csi valence") I thought it was a bumper/air dam set.

You need this?

Kinda rough condition though... might be salvageable with some bondo and paint.

First of all, do you already have one of these bumpers to work with, or are you updating a car? If you already have one you can fix it if it is just cracked.

I wouldn't really use Bondo or JB weld on a bumper like that although it can be done. You can vee out the crack, and depending on what the bumper is made from (urethane, polypropylene, etc.) then use a plastic welder ($$$) or an applicable epoxy repair product.

its not the right one.

the 88/89's are different from the rest of the series.

matt, its an individual part. its not a part of the bumper. i have the chunk thats missing from it. im thinking of taking it to a fiberglass place to get it repaired.

Yeah, I figured it was the airdam but depending on what type of plastic or fiberglass it is made of, it's most likely repairable.

Beats finding another one and having it wind up brittle or something. I'd look into it. Most of the time when you get used junkyard parts, there is enough prep involved with making them nice again that it counteracts the good deal on the purchase price!

an experienced body shop can fix fiberglass no problemo. My dad repaired a damaged hood I got off a wrecked 90 Z24 for my 91 RS... good as new.

Any decent body shop could paint it, don't take it to the stealership.
