Forget about the "euro" rear valance. IMOP, it looks like a poor ad on and is obviously a not a porsche part...

let us know how the turbo hunt go's

[RaF944]

It is a porsche part....all the 944's in europe have it...it looks really good. Have you seen it on that Silver 44 in the tweeks catalog? Its only $149.00 at Performance Products

Goku, you've been peddlin that damn thing on here for awhile now. Sell it or keep it! If it was really that good, or if you were asking the right price, it'd be gone by now

IMO, I don't like adding anything to cars cosmetically. It takes away from the originality of it. I absolutely hate those Porsche reflector lenses that people put on the back of 944's where the license plate should be. It looks cheesey and gives the impression that one has show off that its a Porsche. Just my 2 cents.

that was a factory option, offhand. it came with my 924 when it left Neckarsulm.

The Euro Valance was taken off the US cars...How is it adding something cosmetically that isnt there? Its supposed to be on there....Listen what ever floats your boat guys......I want the Euro valance so i am going to get it....my $.02

yeah, but if your car didn't come with it.......

i see there is going to be a little war. my 84 944 is yellow, not a factory color, has a yellow grant steering wheel not a factory option a yellow porsche banner across the top of the windshield, not a porsche option a aiwa cd player, not the factory radio and a porsche rear light plate, not a factory option here in the u.s. i bought and plan to install before i get the car repainted, yellow, the rear euro valance. is my car a porsche, yes. i just customized it to my prefrence. Raf, knock yourself out doing what you want to your car and the rear valance does look great and not like a cheesy option. my $.99

[ckrough]

just my personal opinion, but the rear valence looks great I have an S-2 and it comes with the valence from the factory...looks fantastic.

now if I could just keep the exaust tip shiny.

Setting aside the styling issues, it seems that if your goal is to sell the car, why put more effort into it. Lets be open about it, the rear valance will not increase the value of the car that much. Remember, in some cases, customised cars are worth less. Put the time into fixing the dent, clean up or polish the wheels and let it go. This way, you can save more $$$'s for the turbo.

As for "asidrave" yellow car, I think its cool... the car has a theme and he is not trying to represent something its not...

[todd951]

ckrough, the euro rear valance they are talking about is not the same one on the Turbo and S2. This is the one they are talking about:

uck.

[p0r2chby]

Yep, hard to imagine that it's a true porsche design part. The turbo/S2 part looks much better

[RaF944]

Alright ****ing A, I wont get the ****ing rear valance............

I like it.... but i guess thats a matter of preferance...... what the hell does ****ing A mean? everyone says it..... anyone know? also we should chill with our language cuz were gunna recieve hell i bet..... laters

[1.2gees]

I don't think it looks so bad! The turbo under spoiler is better, but the european valace isn't bad at all, on a 924 it makes the thing look even taller, but on a 944 not too bad. That's not to say I'd do it to my car, but you know what I mean.

What I don't like is how the center-piece on mideast's car being painted black, with raised "P O R C H S E" sticking out... Maybe a straight piece, without the letters, painted black would look fine. On a black car anyway...

RaF944, don't worry about what I or others say, do what YOU want, it's YOUR car!

In an earlier message someone said that "All 944's in Europe" have this rear valance. WRONG. Hardly any UK cars have them, most go for the Turbo Valance. It is a Porsche part by the way, I have one, which has PORSCHE moulded inside it, with a 944xxxxxxx part number. I'l never fit it though, how ugly?????
