    Since my maverick has the big bumpers in the front & rear, I was wondering what are all the parts I need to install the pencil bumpers for the front & rear?

    front and rear bumper
    front and rear lower valence
    front and rear bumper brackets (2x front, 2x rear)
    rear 1/4 panel extensions from a 70-73 2dr(or a graber spoiler)

    aside from the hardware i think thats all the important stuff

    The 73 lower quarter panel extensions and rear bumper brackets on a 73 are different than a 70-72. The upper quarter panel extensions and Grabber spoiler are the same on 70-73. Also, remember that a 73 front bumper, valance, brackets, etc is different from any other year.

    If you need inner trunk supports, I found them here in Houston at John's Mustangs.

    Website is www.johnsmustang.com

    Don't tell them what model car you have, especially if John or his mother answer the phone. They will argue with you telling you that this won't fit, isn't the correct part, you have the wrong car, etc. Not very professional. The kid that sometimes answers is much more professional.

    just order part number MM334 at $13.95 each...might be called part ID 76777, both numbers are on my receipt.
