Does any know if you can use a 73' 240Z rear bumper on a 72' 240Z?

I was just at the pick & pull auto salvage the other day and I saw a Dec 73 and a July of 72 240z and the bumpers looked exactly the same. I even thought about snagging the front and rear on both , but they had some dents. I bought my 71 240z with the bumpers painted black gloss. I like chrome. You could also check the parts cataloge to see if the part numbers are the same.

I have looked at two different parts catalogs and they make a distinction between the main central body of the rear bumpers for the 72 and 73. However, the side components of the rear bumpers are listed as the same. So at this point I'm somewhat confused. I have a 73 rearbumper on the way from a salvge yard in Arizona that is in good shape. I will let you know.

For those of you who don't know; you can use a 240Z 1973 rear bumper on a 1972 model.
