I think they are un-obtainium Very Happy Would be great to find some NOS bumper strips.....
I messed with mine quite a bit, to make them look halfway decent.

Not sure is this is what you are looking for or not but it may be worth looking into.

Weren't some Camaro & Z/28 bumpers adorned with similar strips? I think 74-77 had rear impact strips that may be close. Measure yours & check these out... maybe you can modify them to work if all else fails?

It would be good for someone to reproduce something similar or a good replacement. Alot of them are ruined and you cant get them off without striping the stud out of the back of them.

I'm thinking that a repro bumper strip would be expensive to make, with the fasteners molded into the strip etc. Might cost more than a bumper to folks like us...(?)

The bumper I used on the front of my Elco project was originally without the holes for the strips, and I laid out the holes & drilled them in the correct location. Original bumper is bent & needs repair. Of course some chrome bumper bolts can be used to fill the holes if the strip is trashed and not usable.
