I have a 73 duster, i was reading on here that 70-72 front and rear bumpers fit no problem, does anyone have pictures or anything of it thanks
 
They will fit, I had to buy the brackets from a 72 car as the later model used the larger bumpers that are pointed in the middle and stuck out further. Older brackets will bring the bumpers closer to the car. I have a 74 that i put a complete 72 front end on. Some people have used the shock type bumper mounts drilled holes and pushed the bumpers closer then welded the holes back up.
 
How about the filler piece between the bumper and grille.Wouldn't that look kind of funny with a straight bumper - angled grille and hood

do you have any pics of the car like this?
 
I changed my grill and hood too. Probably would look odd with the pointed grill on the later models. But the back bumper wont matter.
