Hey guys!

Just wondering...on my '72 240z, the metal behind the useless bumper has been slightly crunched. Is this a replaceable part? I'd much prefer to tear the thing off and replace it with a new, non surface-rusted piece, just to be safe. I can get a pic if needed, but literally it's the piece behind the left corner of the flimsy metal bumper. Thanks.

At the risk of sounding obtuse, WHICH bumper? Front or rear?

The Front: You might be able to find new fenders, or headlight sugar scoops, or the lower turn signal valance.

The Rear: (and this is what I think you are referring to) Depending on whether it is the corner of the Fender OR the metal below the tail light.

The fender CAN be obtained, but it isn't a one day job to weld and graft in. Sometimes it is easier to work the existing metal.

If you are referring to the metal below the tail lights, then it gets trickier. That ridge is actually a support beam for the rear deck. The "skin" of it is actually on top of a square tube that runs the full width of the car. Againk it depends on the amount of damage there.

FWIW

Yes to both questions, its the cost that gets you though. The metal piece, rear valance as MSA calls it is available threw them.
