    Questions about "strange" front bumper guard

    Hello members,

    I have a pair of this front bumper guard since 30 years...

    • First style solid bumper guard
    • Has rubber pad
    • Wider bumper trim : 1967 911S ???
    • Holes (I suppose) to install a bar ???



    Would you have any idea what year/model these parts are correct for?

    Thanks.
    Philippe

    Those holes look like they were for the factory bumper bar (Not Amco).

    Any vent slot at the top of the guard?

    This bumper guards have solid back and no slots.
    See picture #1 on first post.

    It's very unlikely the factory ever made solid backs with a rear contour for wide S-deco. Those deco contours don't look very precise; I'm guessing someone cut an early bumper guard to fit a later deco.
