Well, waste of Chris's time and everyone else's not to just tell me the difference between a bumper and a fender. (Though I suppose the same logic could have applied to my post the other day about fire leather! :-) Actually, I figured they were fenders by analogy to bicycles, with whose mechanics I am more familiar than with motor vehicles. Anyway, is it possible to get the brackets that attach the side part of the bumper to the rear quarter panel (thanks, whoever filled me in on the name for that part of the body)?
