1978 cutlass bumpers (front or rear)

[jjamm7667]

whats up guys... I decided to rebuild / light restore my 78 cutlass and was wondering if bumpers from any other g-bodies would fit on mine. I came across this ebay listing below.. Are these different vehicle bumpers able to fit my 78?

No. Only 1978-80 rear Bumpers will work with your Cutlass. True, 78-80 bumpers from any G body might bolt up, but the plastic impact stuff behind them won't match up and you will have to remove them. Then you will have this big noticeable void.

The Front bumpers on 78-79 cutlass were a little different than the 80. I think they still match enough close enough?

ALSO, the rear bumpers for 4 doors are different enough that they won't work, but I THINK the front are the same.
The Salon had different front and rear bumpers I think.
