    Rear LWB Bumper Guard Black Rubber Strips

    Who is supplying the best rear black bumper rubber strips. Ones that look like original factory. If someone has good originals I would be interested also. Thanks!

    Looking for the best source for the rubber strip on the 2 rear guards not the bumper itself.

    Mike, this is what I got from Stoddard. Seems to fit ok, but I don't know how correct it is. I have way too much so let me know if you want some and I'll mail enough to do a pair of bumper guards.

    Ok, time for a picture. I am looking for the wide rubber pad on the outside of the chrome bumper guard.

    Great. 5 post before anyone understood what you want. Perhaps more/better info upfront next time, plz.
    I tried 2 vendors for the rubber bumperette pads, both were too long, forcing me to restore/reuse my originals.

    I can attest to the fact that all the repro rubber bumperette pads out there don't fit and I wasted a bunch of $$ finding that out. Spend the time and $$ and find nice originals!
