    Confirming 65-66 No Undercoating for Bumpers

    I found this site for 67S paint and underseal/undercoating details and would like to confirm if below is also applicable to 65-66 models

    https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...+Paint+Details


    9. BUMPERS

    The bumpers (front and rear corners) and rear centre panel are painted like the outside of the car (in 2. OUTSIDE). NO underseal is used. All sides are body colour.
    The front bumper weights:
    are mounted afterwards with resin and rubber base pads
    are also sprayed with body colour




    To confirm, backsides of front bumper, rear bumpers and center rear panel are NOT undercoated? Also, front bumper weights are painted in body color not black?

    Thanks!

    I don't know about the weights, but on my '65 the inside of the bumpers have no undercoating and are body color as well as the rear center panel.
