1973 Dodge Challenger.  Once the rear bumper guards are removed, what are the small chrome pieces that cover the valance panel gaps below the bumper called?  How do they attach?

Also, what is involved in pulling a bumper closer to the body panels like in the 70 and 71 model Challengers?  Can one buy the correct brackets or just modify the existing ones.  What have others done?  I am sure there are plenty of threads on this with restorations and such.

Thanks.

No problem.  Some of the posters from that thread also frequent this board...they may be of more help since that one is like 2 years old
