View attachment 6892 Hi everyone, As I have mentioned before, I am making replacements for hard to find or improvements over original parts for X1/9. First is Early style front grill/valance assembly. Carbon fiber. Fit is perfect, no visible hardware, 1 minute installation. All correct curves to match lower front fenders, unlike some other fiberglass replicas, where valance's 45 degree surface is flat. Grill is the closest possible pattern match for the era and car's front end design. Note the curved bottom of the grill and lower wider open area - that's because I tilted my radiator backwards for much better airflow capturing and ducting through the radiator, also air exit is guided smoothly down and out "sliding" on 45 degree "back duct" versus the original parachute-like high drag area behind the radiator. Added are 2 quiet high efficiency sleek fans, one operated by the original temp sensor, the other manually by an original looking switch on the dash. If anyone is interested in grill-valance part as direct replacement on all models, let me know. I can also make the lowest 2 inches of the valance out of rubber blended upwards into carbon grill frame. Now I make improved Euro bumper design, will be made out of carbon or rubber.
