Besides compromising it's identity as a '76, how hard is it to swap out bumper systems?

I just back dated my 76 with a pair of early FG bumpers (tops molded in). You will have to drill new holes in the front & rear panels to accept stock early bumpers. You may have to remove the flanges that hold the late 75/76 rubber bumper covers to the body and plug the old heavy duty shock hardware holes. A pretty simple conversion.
