Rear Bumper Seals for RS Replica
I am at the point in my restoration where I'm ready to buy the bumper seals for my '73 RS Replica....so I want to make sure that I buy the all the ones that I need.
Here's what I have as a part of the project:
I am going through our host's site and building my order but can someone confirm in the list below that I have all the seals and the correct ones....or are there any I don't need?
Are the Left & Right Side Bumper to body seals long enough for the wider flares? Is the Center Panel to Body Seal necessary to go between my fiberglass bumper and the rear engine bay bulkhead? So, am I forgetting any seals or are these all that I need ? Any help is appreciated.....Thanks! ![]() |

The bumper to body seals were long enough on my RS clone with f/g fenders and SC flares. Have to do a bit of trimming actually to fit back around where the molded bumper guard deals are. Comes with some adhesive on the rubber, but I found if you just wedge the rubber between the bumper and the body it stays in there pretty good.
I didn't use anything in the center, have the rubber but dont think I will use it. The photo is pre-rubber install, but just for reference. I think you will find with the two rubber seals on each side, you will be happy. ![]() |

We use 3 seals for the back of the rs and rsr replicas we build. Two for setting in place from the fender opening. and one to cut for "extending" the standard ones so the whole length is sealed. You will have to do a bit of trimming on the center license plate area to fit the panel to chassis seal. Then you will have to fabricate some sort of lip to support the panel to deck lid seal
