My question is what bumper guard (the little piece that comes off the bumber into the valance) did they use? Chrome? Chrome with the black bumper guard? Something else? Anyone got a pic of an original?

No that's not the right answer - bumper guards are not an option on cars coded with M73 rubber bumpers.
Does anyone have a picture of a real car?

Bumper guards are not an option for the front on rubber bumper cars,but all Challengers had bumperettes on the rear,rubber bumpers or chrome.
Yes - they all have bumperettes. The question is which bumperette. The logical choice is that it is the plain chrome one. I'm trying to confirm that.

I don't have any pictures of them,but most i've seen have the plain chrome bumperettes. I suppose it was possible to get the ones with the black rubber strips on them. I don't think Challenger bumperettes came with the plastic filler peices that go on the rear of the bumperettes,and into the openings in the valance,I believe that was a Cuda thing.

My assumption is that it should have the plain chrome bumperettes. Unfortunetly someone bought the bumpers off my car a long time ago so I don't have the originals to look at.

The chrome front bumper guards with "rubber pad" & rear "rubber pad" on the existing chrome "bumperettes" were only available as OPTION M85 - front & rear bumper guards - $23.80 in '70 & $27.40 in '71.
They were NOT available or included with the "Elastomeric" bumpers.
But they were part of the A05 Protection Group Pkg

Obviously not a real car, but I think these are real A22 71 bumpers. I first saw this car Aug 2000.
I think before the repro bumpers were being produced.

Repo bumpers were available for sure in 95....
This is one of them... The front is an original....

well this is a 71 V-code in Hemi Orange missing it's Elastomeric Bumpers - actually I bought a set that is probably the original set off the car - how many rubber bumpers could there be in Canada?
