    Bumperettes on 72 US 911T

    My bumpers of the Irishgreen are at the body and paintshop.

    The Irish 911T was delivered in 8/71 to Chicago. CoA lists several options and
    M470, which includes bumperettes.

    Porsche classics HP and my books say for european cars only rear bumperettes in 72/73.

    How about US cars?

    And had the two lower holes in the bumper been closed if there had been no bumperettes?

    Cheers

    Dirk

    U.S. cars had front bumperettes, other than my car, on which I had the holes welded up, most cars I've seen without them used a rubber plug for the hole.

    I believe all US cars came with front bumperettes. See May 1973 vintage photo below of a USA delivered stock 1972 911T.
