    Hi all,

    Hope all is well on your side !

    I have a pretty straight forward question for you guys. I just had the rear bumper of my 75' Electra all powdercoated, and when it cames back it didn't had those little body fastener things to screw the reverse lights.

    My dumb question is : Is that what I need to screw them ? If no, what should I be using ? https://www.summitracing.com/parts/oer-r801

    Thanks!!

    Hey guys, just answered my own question. :)
    These are called barrel nuts, and can be ordered via rockauto or summit.

    Thanks anyway!

    Nice find with the barrel nuts. Curious though: powdercoated? Did you go with a body colour? Can you share some pictures

    Hey Timmy,

    Sure, here's a picture of the rear bumper. I don't have any picture of the front bumper at the moment, but it is powdercoated in the same colour. The lights bezels and the grill were also painted in the very same colour. It's a satin black which isn't exactly similar to the current colour of the car but it really doesn't matter.
