Recently had towing destroy my front valence/air dam and I need to replace it. I would love to go euro spec now that it's a possibility, but finding them is damn near impossible it seems like, even when searching the German Ebay. I'm located in Middle Tennessee but depending on the cost of shipping from Europe I would be open for euro bumpers.

What year is the car? Worth putting it in your profile.

First off, sorry to hear about the bad towing episode and ... congratulations for being able to now justify a euro facelift!
I do have, left over from a recent restoration of an 84 635 euro, a complete front set up. That is the bumper w good chrome and rubber, mounting brackets, air dam valence, driving lights w mounting brackets and new lenses. This set up is from an earlier 6 (1980ish) but I believe will fit your 87.
It has been federalized so has heavy steel bits welded inside the bumper section. I always recommend removing that extra steel but it's not essential.
I also have a pair of rust free euro front fenders, without lighting cut outs and a pair of euro front turn signal assemblies. I'm in Boston, Ma so not exactly local but definitely closer than Germany.

I have a front valence but it would need a bit of repair. PM me if you are interested with your email and I can send pictures.

My Euro bumper is complete with brackets. To install on a US car, the shock supports need to be cut and holes drilled in the rails to bolt on.
