70 vs. 71-72 Challenger Bumper Fillers

[quapman]

Once again, I learned something new about the old cars I've been wrenching on for 35 years...

FYI...the little V-shaped rubber fillers that snap into the ends of Challenger bumpers have two versions. 70 and the bigger 71/72 version. Different part numbers and everything. I'd add pics if I had them handy.

I guess I "kind of" knew that but never really thought about it. Most of the cars I worked on and/or owned either didn't have them or I never took the bumpers off to notice them.

Where can you buy the correct ones that fit??   I have a set that won't stay on.   I am wondering if my set of rubber fillers are for 71 or 72?

The ones for a '70 Challenger are Metro BG108.  Summit, among others, has them.

What is the purpose of these fillers?

Ascetic primarily, to close the gap between the bumper and the body.

Thanks FY1Cuda ...... will check those out for fit.

Rock Auto also has them for about $30.
