I was gonna say you should get in touch with oldsmobiledave because he has one, but it looks like that won't help you any.

Thread's nearly four years old. I'll go ahead and guess that OP has either found what he was looking for or moved on altogether by now.

Do you have to have both the 442 option and the 455 to get the notched bumper? 455 alone won't do it? Fantastic transformation by the way. Radiant green surely was great colour.

Yes. The U code by itself didn't warrant the cutout bumper. You needed both the W29 with 455 power or the W30 A 72 U code car would have down turned exhaust at the rear bumper.
