    i'm not counting on a fortune but just how much would somebody pay for a complete 73 bumper setup (i'm swapping my bumpers so the old one is uneeded) it's not rechromed or anything and has one very small dent on the front.
    thanks :)

    when you say complete set up im assuming this means the bumper, brackets and lower valence and the other bits needed for the swap or is this just your old bumper?

    this includes every single piece ever needed on the swap, including all the nuts and bolts

    if someone is interested in converting their mav to 73 bumper do they need the valence or are they the same on 74 and up

    74 and up don't have a front valance, so, yes, they would need it.
    70-72 valances are the same, 73 is it's own, 74+ don't have one

    That's why I had you take the valance with the small bumper. The 73 valance is for the 73 only. 74 to 77 did not have valances....

    hey coop perfect timing i'll buy that complete back bumper setup from you. we wont be able to get down there for a few weeks probably because were pretty busy. as for now though i got that bolt out and now we have to get the rock guard cut to fit in the fender so projects coming along good. Thanks Matt :)

    I didn't think you had to cut the rock guard. I was told direct bolt up, with all the right parts. Anyway, I have the rear bumper setup with your name on it. You can come get it, whenever. I'm in no hurry to part the rest of the car, until it gets warmer....

    instead of notching the fenders were just going to cut out the section of the rock guard so it would fit around the body. anyways i've been working all day so i could pay my dad some gas money cause to :drive: down there it cost around $30.00 Thanks Matt

    You could also just use your stock rubber rock guard and cut it down width wise and it would go right behind the small bumper. :thumbs2:
