Default Brewster Green Front Spoiler

Decent original spoiler molded in green. Would be nice for a survivor or redo it for a restoration should the owner want a real correct part. I think I'm supposed to include a price but I'm sorry, I just have no idea what this is worth.

Default Valance

I also have an original green valance I'm going to get rid of. Came from an SD car that I restored. I fixed and painted the valance once and it cracked again so I put on a repo. That was back before people found a way to properly repair them. Two corners are gone and I do not have the pieces. Just like the spoiler, I have no clue what a price is.

That polyethylene valance would be an easy one to fix.
I have plastic-welded up valances 10 time worse that that, with excellent results. The hard part isn't the welding: it's the shipping of the valance once it's fixed!

Here is a odd question would there be any way to repair the valance and keep the original color like mixing in color or something to the molten plastic?

They do make dark green polyethylene welding rods. But they are not close enough to the factory green poly color (which isn't too close to the factory Brewster Green paint color, either)

From what Steve (sd455hota) says it's been painted already so don't worry about keeping it that way. You're close enough to njsteve to take one of his weekend valence repair classes!

Would it not be practical to strip the paint off back to plastic?

You need to sand down to the plastic, in the area of the repair, before beginning the plastic welding process, otherwise it imbeds contaminants in the melted plastic area. If the remainder of the paint is adhering well, there is no need to remove it, otherwise you start from square one in trying to get the paint to adhere to polyethylene.
