Title: front plastic panels behind/under bumper - what are all of the pieces?
Post by: Cobra Jet on June 03, 2008, 09:19:49 PM

Can someone take a shot from underneath of their 318 that still retains all of the front black plastic panels/parts that are found behind the front bumper/valance/lip area?

My 318ic seems to be missing quite a few of these parts and I want to see a 318 that still retains all of those parts/pieces what it looks like to get an idea of what I do need...

My inner fender splash shields appear to be there (partially), I'm missing the brake duct work for sure and I don't know what other panels or pieces should be in that area.

Looking at some pics online, it appears to me that some owners of 318's have what looks to be a plastic underpanel which seems to be in front of or covering the oil pan area...  like in this member's pic:

I'm not referring to the lip as I do have that part, I'm referring to all of the pieces behind the bumper & in the wheel wells forward of the engine...

Can anyone help?

thx!
