Rear Bumper Filler????
« on: August 26, 2009 - 04:46:53 PM »
Is there a different length for rear filler panels for the '73 Challenger from other years? Mine came with the car when I bought it but it does not seem to fit properly into the side filler pieces.  :clueless:

All the same length. Shame, but they are known for shrinking quite a bit. As much as 3 inches over time

I have the same problem front and rear on my 73 Challenger. I'm looking at shortening the bumper brackets to bring the bumpers to the body and doing away with them. Anyone see any problems doing this on a 73?
