willie Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Does anyone know, for a 72 how can i tell if they were put on from the factory? Also what box or code would it be on the build sheet? Tkx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCfan Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 For a '70, they were listed on the Build Sheet (in the options section below the boxes) as RPO V31 and RPO V32 for front and rear bumper guards, respectively. I don't see a box for them on the '70 Build Sheet. Doubt anything was different for the '72 but I can't confirm that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72-CLASSIC_RIDE Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 For 1972, my Build Sheet shows for both Front/Rear, V30 as the RPO Code. Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 Tkx Guys, I dont have them listed but was thinking about putting them on, but wanted to make sure i was looking in the right place. Doug you have alot of options on that custom, love it!!!! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCfan Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 IMO, bumper guards look so good and so natural on a first gen Monte that they should have been standard equipment from the factory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montemedic Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 A lot of Chevrolet dealers installed them as a “dealer installed option”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously I like the way the short ones look. A good addition. I thought about it on my 71 but I wanted the rubber strip on the bumper.

willie Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 Yes Dennis i was thinking of the smaller ones for my custom. Would not take off the rubber strip on any SS to put guards on. Also am concerned about the right side mirrors, they will be on every other Monte... LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I believe the 71 SS could be ordered with front bumper guards and pad in the rear. If you ordered rear bumper guards it would delete the pad. Not 100% on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 I agree Tom, the pad supersedes the guards. Although they do look good front or back, the pad wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
