I am wondering about those bumper brackets - mine were exactly the same. I wonder if the factory goofed and they had some poor bugger with a torch opening up the holes?

Was your car hit in the front?

I see no evidence the car was ever hit in the front. When I got the car the bumper fit was very good and when I stripped the bumper, there was no evidence of it being worked on. Another person in one of my forums thought that the front fit of the car went bad when the core support mounts rotted out and that someone compensated by using a torch on the brackets to get it lined up again. Don't know though.
