Year one is open 24 hours a day... don't know what they have, but a good place to start.  I'd try ebay after that.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

The bumper guards aren't available after-market. It's E-Bay or nothing(most people don't like the BIG black rubber thing), but you can get earlier bumper guards to fit if you don't want to be "correct". I'm a Challenger guy, but from what I know the trunk chrome, might be do-able, but getting those "C" pieces are the TOUGH part.   :grinyes: If you need chrome racing mirrors for a 73, you can go two ways. Buy a crummy original set and get it re-chromed... or try your luck with the re-pro mirrors.  I haven't heard alot of positives from the people that have gone re-pro, but that doesn't mean that it is bad( it's a new thing). There are only a few people that have tried it. I don't know your budget, but you should be able to get each side mirror re-chromed for $150, or so.

 :canada:

If you email and wait until the weekend - I have a set of front and rear bumper guards. I think they are in good condition but that is why you will have to wait until I get home and check them. They are on a 73 Challenger and I am not going back to #'s match. I think they fit the Cuda. $75 CDN plus shipping for the 4 if you want. Email me at kiwi@sunwave.net I will not read it until Saturday.

Like MEK said, the trunk trim is hard to find.  I looked for over a year before I found the C pieces (on a parts car).  I think the straight peice is repopped, but not the C pieces. They do come up occasionally on ebay.   There were lots of chrome mirrors at carlisle, but they were pretty expensive, I am sure you can find some on ebay also.
