74-77 Rear bumper cover strips
 

Anyone have an original condition Firebird with the rubber rear bumper on a 74 -early 77? I was wondering what colour the flat strips were that were riveted along the top and bottom? Assume just satin black paint or perhaps grey coating for bare metal as normally bumpers painted prior and assembled later.

On my '75, they are black.

Check out [SD-455 coming to shop next month] post in the 74-76 firebird tech. It shows pictures of a original 74 TA.

Thanks guys, and will do.

Here’s a pic of mine.

Excellent and thanks for pic. Exactly how I imagined them when in good shape.
I have a couple spare, will drop them in when I have a batch of satin black powder coating soon.
