    your gonna need these parts

    bumper
    bumper brackets
    front valence
    front bumper filler panel
    hood latch support ( i dont think you need the latch support)
    and you'll have to notch a square in the front corner of your fenders or in the valence.

    if you have any more questions look up "bumper swap" its a pretty popular topic lol

    I'm quite sure that's custom. If you want stuff like that you might need to learn Portuguese and go down to Brazil.

    Mavericks still have a big following there, and an aftermarket. They were made there from 73-79 and they never got the big bumper treatment. They're still considered hot cars in Brazil, and a coveted classic.

    Yes, if we could just convoy down to Sao Paulo, we'd get all the chicks...

    those brazilians could fix up maveys really nice i think, their taste buds are actually good. theres gotta be a brazil web link of the aftermarket parts.
    i think theres 700 pounds limit per vehicle to 3 chick could fit into one maverick which already includes a driver:biglaugh:

    If you're really interested in Brazillian parts, check out http://www.manualdomaverick.com.br

    It's another Maverick forum, based in Brazil. There's an "International" section where they speak English, might be able to score some parts by talking to those guys...
