What exactly do you mean by "bumper fillers"? If you're talking about the molded rubber pieces at the ends, yes all 69 Cutlii had these on the bumper. If you're talking about the rubber strip that runs horizontally on the bumper, this was an option and yes it was available on the 442.

OK, let's try this again. ALL 1969 Cutlii (that includes 442s and F85s) had two rubber pieces that fit into the top upper corners of the bumper where it fits against the quarter panels. These are about 3-4 inches long.

There was an optional rubber strip that ran the ENTIRE WIDTH of the bumper above the license plate. Most 69s do not have this piece. I assume you're talking about the former.

Should you add the two rubber fillers? Yes, they're supposed to be there.
