My question is this…did the front bumpers of the 1973 914 come with front bumperettes without exception or did some come without?

I remember the "Bumperettes". They were an all female doo-wop group from South Philadelphia. One big hit in around 1956. One of them got married, had four kids, got fat. One of them choked to death eating a cheese steak and fries. The other two ran off to France together and were never seen again. A tragedy really. They made some great music.
