Default Replacement urethane bumper? 1973 Mustang

Has anybody run across a place that sells a replacement, refurbished, NOS, or any other urethane bumper for a 73 mach1? I'm also having trouble finding the square rings that fit in the grill and around the headlights. It seems that these are the only part of the car not mass produced.

Nope. Neither of them have it listed on their website. All they carry are the chrome ones.

I remember that article, that's from back when Jeff Ford was the editor at Mustang Monthly. Be sure to test fit your bumper before painting it.

Call Ohio Mustang Supply. Don has been doing 71-73 mustangs for very long. If there are not made he might have some good ones.

Ok, I have contacted everybody listed above. You guys will know when I found one because that little picture of my car on the left will have a whole bumper on it. Thanks for all the help.

You could change it to the 71/72 front end unless you like the big bumper the 73 has.

NO, There's no way I'm gonna put a 71-72 front end on and make a b@stard/mutt car out of my baby. I contacted EVERYBODY listed above and all they have are decent used bumpers for the style I'm looking for. And the prices range from $350 to $600 before shipping. So, about the same price as a new hood or fender.
