Facing pipes too damaged (8)
I believe the answer is:
opposite
'facing' is the definition.
(as in two things facing each other)
'pipes too damaged' is the wordplay.
'damaged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pipes'+'too'='pipestoo'
'pipestoo' with letters rearranged gives 'OPPOSITE'.
(Other definitions for opposite that I've seen before include "Facing - reverse" , "across the road?" , "Antithetical, vis-a-vis at" , "Contary of face-to-face" , "antipodean" .)
