putting turbo/S2 valence rear valence on NA
I picked up a nice rear turbo valence for my car last night. I am trying to figure out if it mounts up to something that is already on the back of the car or if i am going to have to do some drilling.

It will help you if you use a floor jack to hold the large piece up to psuedo-mount it, and mark the holes you need to make. The smaller piece on the drivers side can be held by hand and the holes marked. Good luck!

When drilling the holes into the sides of each fender, make sure you measure (in this case line up and mark) twice and drill once. Needless to say i drilled 2 extra times on my drivers fender and once extra on the passenger. Nothing bondo and some touchup paint didnt fix...but avoid having to do that all together.

Excellence magazine did an article on adding a turbo rear valence to an n/a. It's not that difficult to do, and the article was very detailed.

http://members.rennlist.com/tifosiman/page1.jpg http://members.rennlist.com/tifosiman/page2.jpg http://members.rennlist.com/tifosiman/page3.jpg http://members.rennlist.com/tifosiman/page4.jpg Note that it really pertains to post 85.5 cars that have the 5 pre-drilled holes. But it should be helpfull nonetheless. These links will self-destruct in 2 days.
