Since I don't live too far from AMD and their '67 GTO rear bumper was on sale, I went and picked one up. Well, two. The first one had a flaw, looked like the substrate was not prepped correctly and the chrome looked rough in one spot. They exchanged it for another, completely hassle-free. The second one had no flaws in the chrome. As I mentioned in my original post, I was concerned about the contour because the repop I bought several years ago was nearly flat side to side, whereas it needs a slight peak in the center. This one fit very well and matched the contour of the tail panel. There is a tab on the top of the right hand backup light hole that needed to be trimmed for the lamp assembly to fit, but all in all I'm happy with it. It does seem a little thinner than what I recall, but that's to be expected.

AMD does not make these, they are from Taiwan. But as a reproduction they are pretty good.
