They look to me like they should be mounted vertically under the bumper going to the valance panel. I would have thought they came off a midyear Vette. Not real sure though.

This is what ecklers is selling as a 1968 bumper guard same as my 72 and not even close to the pictures I posted above Eclers part number for a 1968 is Part# A8145L and for 1972 is Part# A8146L with this same picture and all you 68 69 guys know the pieces I asked the question about don't match your cars.

I tried to buy some of these not to long ago on ebay. I got sniped and they were NOS also. I wound up just getting mine rechromed. Looks like a good buy to me.

By the looks of the parts you are buying, your car is in good hands with its current owner. :thumbs:

Eddie 70 Thanks for the compliment The parts bolt right up just like the correct parts they just arent shaped the same at all. Too small for a 70 camaro BTW nice 70 Camaro!
