Bumper rear absorber difference 1990-1992/1993-1995
Hello,
I've been looking for a rear bumper cover for a while now and I think I finally found one. Donor car is 1993, my car is a 1991. 1993 seems to have a different model of absorber. 1993: 1991 (#15): How would be the fitment? Thanks!

I'm sure GM just found a cheaper way to produce the inner absorption material. As G8nightman stated all the 91-95 bumper covers are the same.

Noted!
My concern is: on my 1991, it is bolted (or riveted according to the picture?). What about the 1993+? The holes fit?

Well, I'm getting more and more concerned.
Impact bar seems to be VERY different on a 1993 compared to 1992. Top is 1993+, bottom is 1992-...

FWIW, the bumper supports changed from the honeycomb to styrofoam somewhere around VIN no. 120 in the '93 MY. GM had to lighten the car to meet the as-approved EPA fuel economy requirements for '93.

Also to note, there are slight differences between 1990 and 1991. I’ll try to get a pic tonight.
