Hello Tailfins...  Welcome

Since you asked about "bomerang" stainless pieces I have to assume you mean the trim that mounts on the back of the quarter on the Grand Coupes '70 and '71 and also came on 'CUDAs from '72 to '74.  The AAR pieces are very different and are C shaped mounted on the tail panel.
As far as I know no one has repoed those yet and you need to buy them piece by piece on E-pay

I'm a little confused.  :clueless:  Does anyone have a picture of this trim on a car.

Here are pics of the trim piece. The AAR and Grand Coupe are similar in that they use the rectangular chrome pieces in the middle of both sides of the '70 Barracuda grille.

Thanks 360 Cuda, i'm familiar with the rectangular pieces that came on the grille of the AAR and gran coupe, and I've seen cars with the 3 piece trim that goes on the rear quarter, and the 4 piece trim that goes around the tail panel, but whats with the "boomerang".   :clueless:  Also the 4 pc tail panel trim came on a lot of 70 'cudas didn't it? It wasn't specific to AAR I dont' think.   :dunno:

The side pieces are boomerang shaped. Kinda.......  All 'CUDAs in '70 and '71 have the 4 pc trim but tailfins asked about AAR and Grand Coupes so...

  Those pieces on the 70 look to be the same as the pieces on the back of my 73 cuda.  Is there a diffrent set of rear tail panel wrap trim than what is on this 70 above?  Does anyone have pictures of the c shaped tail panel trim, 4 piece??
