Is this the front or rear panel? I assume you mean the piece between the bumper and the body?

[formula sunbird]

Thanks, yes its the rear filler panel that goes between the body and bumper. I see some one eles had a hard time trying to find one.

Hi John I see you have asked the same question on my post " how do I save this" let me know if you find one as that is the reason I spent all the time re building what I had . As I couldn't find one when I started to rebuild mine . If you go through that post I do believe another member said the was one out P.E.I. Canada way and there is a fiberglass shop in Ontario Canada that advertises them can't remember there name (anybody?) In all honesty good luck and if you do find one let us all know as I am sure we are not the only one's that could use it . I am still completing on making a mold of mine but mine is not perfect.

ok will do thanks Len. And Len what do you think you would want for a fiber glass filler panel if you make them? and please let me know if you produce them becase i know people would be intersted in them!!!

I am trying to look the part numbers up for these. Is this made up of 3 pieces, 2 small ones on the bumper corners and one in the middle? I seem to see 2 corner pieces in my manual along with a valence. I am assuming the valence goes on the bottom of the bumper but I can't really tell from my pic.

[formula sunbird]

Hey this is for the rear bumper to body filler and its all one piece.

stupid question;
is this a hatchback or a coupe?

[formula sunbird]

This is for a hatch back.

Another hatchback Formula Sunbird? Awesome!!! Do you have any pics? BTW - My rear panel is completely shot too.

[formula sunbird]

Hey thanks man, we have to do some thing about this. and no pics but there will be shorty.

[formula sunbird]

ok thanks Len i would say keep searching i already went and got a monza back filler and tried to modafi it to fit but that didnt go out for the way i wanted it to.

im the guy that found the formula sunbird in the wrecking yard in nova scotia. when i was there i bought the complete rear spoiler and the tail lights from the car to save them from the crusher knowing someone would want them one day! i had told len about the tail light panel, if i had only known he needed one while i was there i would have brought that back as well i cant remember if the bumper was still on the car or not or if the filler panel was still there. ill see if i can scare up the phone number so you can call, not shure if he would ship or not, just a small yard out in the middle of nowhere in the countryside no internet i know of. did have a few h bodys tho, pretty well rusted to crap.
