74 Challenger Rear Bumperette Cushions
« on: May 23, 2012 - 03:21:41 AM »
 My Son is restoring a 74 Challenger and is looking for a place to get the rear bumperette rubber cushions, both Top and Bottom.  Any help on this would be appreciated.

For the most part people hate the later (73/74) bumperettes.  As far as I know none of the pieces are reproduced so you'll have to look for a good set of used ones.

73 and 74 bumper guards are different.  The 74s are much larger then the 73's.  I accually like the look of the 73's but 74's are just over the top IMO.  As Jamie said, they are normally removed.  It shouldn't be too hard to find some decent used ones. 

I'm not 100% sure but I think the little rubber wedges that go from the guards to the valance are the same for both years.  Don't quote me on that though.
