'71-72 Grand Prix rear bumper closeout panel
I know a proper (plastic) rear license plate pocket panel has been made for 71-72 GPs before. It may come back on the market (or not). Someone has made a formed metal pocket and posted it on Ebay. Not Cheap. Just a FYI for 71- 72 GP owner with missing rear plate pockets.

I don't know of anyone who has reproduced the 71-72 style in plastic. They do make the 69-70 style.

From 2006 Ames catalog Part Number PL350J 71-72 GP Rear license plate pocket...$68.00 From 2011 PY catalog Part Number B29010 Rear license plate filler...Inquire? If someone has current info on the Ames license plate pocket , please post. Also the Ebay listing I mentioned seems to have vanished. Supply & demand issues.. I,m not sure.

What is the correct finish for a '72? Is it the natural, molded-in-gray color?

If you find one see if they have the front air dam drawings too, that would cover both unicorn parts on 71-72

With some legible original drawings, I could model both parts in Autodesk Inventor...

i actually knew the guy named dean from vermont who made the cast and reproduced the bumper pocket for the 69 70. i gave him the bumper to test fit it and it came out perfect. i lost contact with him about five years ago or maybe longer
