Karmann Ghia Rear Valance

This replacement rear valance outer skin is designed to fit all Volkswagen Karmann Ghia models from the start of production to the end, covering both Coupe and Cabrio variants. The rear valance is a key structural and cosmetic panel that forms the lower rear body section beneath the engine lid. Over the years, this area is highly prone to rust, accident damage, exhaust heat distortion and corrosion from road spray—making it one of the most commonly replaced panels during restorations.

Manufactured to OE-style dimensions, this outer skin provides the correct shape and curvature of the original panel, ensuring a clean and authentic appearance once welded into place. The panel is supplied as the outer skin only, ready to be trimmed, aligned and welded as part of the rear body repair. Once installed, it restores the factory look of the rear apron area and provides a solid base for paint preparation.

Suitable for any restoration from light body repair to full shell rebuilds, this panel fits all body styles and engine configurations used throughout Karmann Ghia production. As with all body panel replacement work, professional fitting and welding is recommended to achieve proper alignment with the rear wings, engine bay opening and bumper mounts.

A must-have replacement part for achieving a clean, straight and rust-free rear end on any Karmann Ghia project.
