74 TruFlex Rear Bumper ???
I see that there is a one piece truflex rear bumper with a "simulated split" AND an actual two piece (L & R) available.
Advantages / Disadvantages ???

I've got the one piece on mine right now. I am hoping to find a used original one, but in the mean time went with this one. It doesn't fit the back of my car very well. The 80 style urethane one I took off fit perfectly so I know it's not the car, and I know these are collision parts, but fitment is very poor. I would definatly not recommend this part to anyone.
Don't know much about the 2 piece, if it lines up better or not.

I have a '74 and opted to go with the one piece fiberglass with no split. It has much more of a smooth look and doesn’t have the waves in it that you get from a rubber one. That's just my 2 cents.

I put the one piece on my 74, I was doing a complete resto so it was sanded and matched to the existing body. Fit great, looks great, and it doesn't expand in the sun like the eurathane ones do to give you the waves and also cracks the paint.
