Default rear bumper brackets needed?

Ok, I need to find rear bumper brackets for my 67 coupe. Upon ebaying it, i find these which i believe is what i need

V\http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ORG-R...spagenameZWDVW

but i also find these which says valance/bumper mounts?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1967-...spagenameZWDVW

i already have my valance mounts and they look nothing like that...mine are more of a bent L shape...so, should i only buy the first link item?
thanks guys

NPD has them. Part # 17A750-2A for $8.95 each. So, go to their site, go to 67's, go to online catalog download, go to bumpers. Walah!

He's talking about the brackets that hold the bumper on the car. The bumper guards are a different animal. Here is a pic of my bumper guards on my 65. Not sure what the guards look like on a 67.

The L-shaped things are for the bumper guards, not the bumpers themselves.

ok, first off, that bumper gaurd is on the valance, shouldnt it be called a valance guard? Im looking for the mounts, the bracket, whatever you call it that makes the bumper stay on the car...

Very good point. I have always wondered why they are called bumper guards too. Seems to me they should be called valance guards too. At any rate, they are useless, except maybe to pretty up the rear a bit.

I've always heard them called bumperettes. Little baby bumpers! Reminds me of rubber baby buggy bumpers.
