Hmmmm, looking at your picture, yours look a little different from mine (I have a '96). The CorvetteCentral part says they're for 84-96, though.

edit: looked at your picture again, and the bumper on the right in the first picture looks like mine, but the left one doesn't - could just be the angle of the picture.

big texas, i would send u one if i bought it as a package and had an extra but looks like you can just buy one by itself there

I can see where if you only had one of the correct size and two missing, the hatch might rattle around a bit
