I have not seen any of these SS bumpers in person yet, but from the pictures it is plain to see that the version with the overriders are not accurate copies of the originals.

The original overriders both front and rear have mounting tubes that go through the body. In the front the tubes go through the front fenders and mount near the main bumper brackets and in the rear the tubes go though 1/4 panels into the trunk.

The SS repros don't have these tubes and the overriders are only mounted to the bumpers.

The original bumpers without overriders are the exact same 5 pieces used with the overriders, but just don't have the holes drilled in them for mounting the overriders.


Either way, you still have holes in the body for the original overrider tubes.
