sagging bumper bellows

Hi all- I have a 1982 SC Targa, nearly all original, with sagging bumper bellows. Is it possible to fix them, or do I need to replace them? As far as I can tell, they are original to the car.

Thanks, Jason

They should be tucked under the valance. You can remove the lower valance piece and poke the bellows back where it belongs.

If you decide to replace them, get the OEM version.

Twice the price ($62 vice $30) but you wont regret it.

Just took off the rear bellows and valance. The bellows is upside down! That's why it just doesn't seem to mount right!http://forums.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/eek.gif

I love a cheap and easy fix. I can't stand fixing the crappy work of a PO.
