In search of Front Bumper Guards '65 Satellite

[hashmaker]

I see there is a correct set of fronts on ebay but they want too much. Where else can you get front bumper guards for a 1965 Satellite. I keep getting rears sent to me by mistake. While the rubber cushion my be the same from '63 to '65 the chrome base seems different than a '63. Thanks for your help.

Aren't they the same as the '65 Coronet bumper guards?

I believe so, in pictures the bumpers look the same. Parts suppliers keep saying they are the same for 63 and 65 but the front bumpers are very different.
The rears do look the same. And the rubber pads are the same, the metal piece mating to the front bumper is the issue.

Just checked the differences between Dodge and Plymouth. Way different. Will not interchange.

I bought a set of NOS off ebay. After looking and talking with people and being told over and over the fronts and rears were the same I just laid out the money and bought what was right from the picture he had. Were any years the same front & rear?? Never heard of that before!

Can you get just the rubber inserts for the bumper guards, anywhere?

Joe Suchy (770-964-4441) has the rubber parts for $38/ pair. Great guy to deal with!
