Is it my imagination, or is the Front bumperette/bumper guards longer on the front than on the back for the ‘74 cars?

QUOTE(sportlicherFahrer @ May 26 2023, 10:08 AM)  '73 had front's only. The curvature of the front bumper is different from the rear. The mounting hole spacing for the bumperettes is likely different as well since the rear's have a smaller footprint on the bumper face. I have thought of those two issues.. first I have spare bumpers I could modify if the whole spacing is off. Secondly, I’m thinking that the fronts are set fairly close together where the curvature of the front bumper is less pronounced and therefore wouldn’t cause them to sit at crazy angles. But that’s why comparison pics would help. And in truth I’m not even all that concerned with running them on the front of my modded car, I do like the look at the rear bumper though and will run standard rear sizes if nothing else. . |
