Hi all,

Does anybody know whether the rear lower centre valance should be body coloured or black on a series speciale? It's bugging me and I can't find a decent picture as reference.

Thank you

Hello Daniel,

It’s black on my car and I’m fairly certain that it’s how it was when it was new. The paint finish looks similar to that of the engine cover.

Thanks kieth,

I've just had mine resprayed and I've got some paint left over, but I leave it black as it looks identical to yours. There's been a few blue speciales appear on ebay. I don't know if you saw the 18000 mile one from the channel islands. That had the valance painted blue but I guess it must have been resprayed.

Thanks again

Dan
