Valence question

[Colo318IS]

...so long story short, I'll incurred some damage to my front valance. In trying to track down a new one I'm wondering....

Will any front valence work from e30?  Or should i be looking for specific e30's (e.g., only 318is, or will a 88 325is, 86 325e, 90 325ix, etc work?) to be compatible?

I do know the e30 m3 is radically different so I know enough to stay away from that one (in addition to what I assume is a ridiculous cost).

I am planning to repaint so color doesn't really matter.  I do want to keep the car looking as original as possible though so that's kinda why I was curious if I needed to only focus on the 318is or I could expand my search to other e30's.

Thanks so much for any insight.

I'm pretty sure any E30 from September '88 (aka late model, facelift or plastic bumper) uses the same lower valence (P/N 41-33-1-961-227). #8 http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E30/2-doors/USA/325i-M20/LHD/A/browse/bodywork/front_panel/

I'd go with the stock iS lip.
