Damaged my front valance

Hello all

I have just found out that my car is to low for the drop kerb onto speed hump scenario at my parents house Doh! :banghead:
It seems that I have damaged the front valance by pulling it down under the car, I have had a look in the Bentley bible but can't find out to much from it so I'm hoping someone can put my mind at rest as I have not got time to strip it down tonight and we're off to Egypt on holls tomorrow. You can see in the second to last pic what looks like what was a mounting point and the other side is the same (not shown).

Please someone tell me it is not completely buggered and let me enjoy my holls without worrying. :tumbleweed:

Cheers

Paul






This is pre lowering and pre damage for comparisom

looks like you could probably just remove the lower valence and straighten the mounting tabs. If they are broken, yo might need to have them welded.

Definitely not the end of the world

great looking car BTW, nice stance

Cheers for the reply mate, I also had a few responses on impactbumpers.com and the general feeling is that it does not look to bad, phewww.

Thanks again

Paul

Just standard LHD lens but with beam refectors on for driving on the left.

Ohh, never noticed them before on other cars from the UK. Great looking car, by the way.
