FRONT VALANCE PANEL MISALIGNED/WARPED
Some 1986-1987 Celebrities may have warped or misaligned front valance panels. Field repair can be accomplished by installing a new valance panel using the following installation sequence:
1. Hang valance panel from fenders by attaching at each side (do not start by attaching the valance panel at its center area first).
2. Attach three lower mounting tabs, starting at the right side first and then move across vehicle to the left.
3. Attach the panel center in the grill area while positioning the panel with a slight pressure pushing the part up. This attachment should be made at the hood latch support, not using the previous hole, but let it find its own hole. Use a self tapping screw to fasten panel in place.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
