   Guys,
        Wifey has had a bit of a collision with the famous wild boar in the Forest of Dean, it's caused quite a bit of damage to the front valance of the car, the quickest way of repairing it is to peplace it, just need to know if it's unique to this car or will one off another model/year fit, also is it a straight forward job.

                                  thanx, steve.

	The front lower panel can be unbolted from the car, touring, cab and saloon are identical, but obviously only if the car is a facelift i.e. 88+, cab's didn't get a newer panel until quite late into the E30's life. I've also checked on the ETK, and that shows the models with A/C as having different part numbers.

	We live in the " Forest of Dean " Gloucestershire, Famous, amongst other things, for it's free roaming sheep, now we have wild boar roaming free, we see them most days when we take the dog for a walk, trouble is, that when they need to get to certain parts of the forest they have to cross the roads, and this is when the collision took place. When I took it up the body shop to get a qoute, they discovered that both wings had been pushed back and the front cross member had been damaged. The boar wasn't so lucky. steve.
