Fog lights or no fog lights (a la Club Sport)

[hkiang1]

A week ago I had the misfortune of running into a piece of wood on the freeway which damaged the lower front valence and smashed one of the fog lights of my '88 Carrera. So everything below the front bumper will be replaced. Question: should I replace the front valence with one from the '88 Carrera Club Sport, which has no fog lights, or should I just restore the car back to original? How much weight is saved by going with the Club Sport valence?

Food for thought. The car is a super low milage exconcourse car and would likely be worth more if I kept it original. But who cares?

What do you all think?

I prefer the no fog-light look but the weight savings are probably not noticable unless you trim weight all over the car. Do you use the fog lights?

I use my fog lights, I would reinstall them. In my neck of the woods we refere to foglighs as deerlights.

sorry or the hijack..but beautiful color, twobone.

since it's such a nice car i'd be inclined to keep it original. i'd go back to fogs. like rickv, i use mine from time to time, but not like those folks who run them every night regardless..

I'd say ditch the fogs. The clean look is nice. If you ever have an overheating issue then use a stock style valance and just don't put fogs in. If you have never had an overheating issue then just stick the valance from an SC on it and be done with it. The fogs on my old '88 didn't really help with lighting anyway.
