So you can convert a 1988 car to plastic bumpers with just plastic bumpers and their respective mounting hardware.

1987 and down (like my black car), however, the valances are totally different and thus it's not a possibility to do the plastic bumpers, which is why the Euro bumpers are the popular option, albeit expensive, normally bent/rusty, and hard to find.

The early model (1987 and down) cars also had higher rear arches, so they look really good/unique with the euro bumpers, compared to a late model car. It's a really nice differentiation.
Wow, i never realized how many intricacies there are.
