1969 A body Bumper pad

Does anyone make the rubber bumper pad for the rear bumper that sits on top of the bracket and the bumper rests on it i guess.

I'm confused with this question....
Are you describing the body to bumper fillers on the ends, VE1 impact strip, or the rubber behind the bumper in the center on the pinch weld?
Find a picture to post.

The OP is talking about this pad, and unfortunately I don't know of anyone who repros it.

There is a '70? - '72 Buick Skylark front bumper pad that may be similar....or maybe close enough to be functional. On a '72 Skylark/GS front bumper there is a thicker metal "support" backer/bracket that mounts to the inside of the center portion of the front bumper. The metal that the rubber slips over may not be as thick as the Olds rear bumper bracket...but it's also not a flimsy sheet metal piece. I don't think it's "long" enough where the PIM pic shows the bolt/screw goes through a hole in the pad but it MIGHT be workable.

On a '72 Buick front bumper these two rubber pads serve a similar purpose to what the '69 Olds pads do....they insulate the bumper itself from a underlying piece of support, etc metal.

I'll see if I have one or two around here to take pics, measurements of.
