JayEstes 172 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 All, I have my rear-bumper off for refurb/polish. It was straightened & re-chromed in 1988, and there is an engraving for that, perhaps done as a reference mark for bumper warranty? I don't know. There is another engraving on opposite side that is a mystery. Says N.7.7.9E12 I think. Not sure what - if anything this means. Do any of you have any experience with decoding rear bumper markings? Maybe they were only done at re-chroming and aren't original, i don't know. Let me know if you have any experience here. Thanks, Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Conway 264 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 Jay I think you will find the only original/factory markings for any year is the date stamp. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayEstes 172 Report post Posted October 15, 2015 I didn't notice a date stamp. Was that ink or a real stamp, and where would I look for it? It could be gone either way since the bumpers were re-chromed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
