I recently picked up a center valance in great shape from bad dog parts to complete my spook conversion. I have the center valance, the left and right valances, and the MSA spook back from paint and I am very happy with the quality of work. I am gearing up to take off the front bumper, but I have been reading that the front valance with the captive nut plates is a rare part and may or may not fit my car?

26th-Z has been a great help on this, and he has educated me on the history of this part and the matching the corner valances that goes along with it. My corner valances do not have the captive nuts installed. Do I have a collection of parts that will not match up?

I will post pictures up later tonight, but there is some pics of the center valance posted by 26th-Z below

It should fit with regular 240z corner valance panels. The captive nuts along the bottom edge are for the Euro spoiler.

The Euro corner valance panels are the same as the 240Z corner panels, they just dont have the punched out holes for the turn signals.

Okay, I feel better about proceding with ripping off my old spoiler and bumper. Now anybody know what size those nut plates are on the center valance? I may as well use them if I can.
