    Default Difference between 87-93 rear bumper cover and 79-85 rear bumper cover

    Hi, i have a 1980 notch and my rear bumper cover its a little bit crack. I am thinking about buying a new one and i like the 87-93 ones because it has the "mustang" lettering. I was wondering if its any difference between both rear bumper covers (79-84 and 87/93). Will it fit my 80 notch? Does it matter if its notch or hatch?

    this are the links of the bumper covers:

    Molding is very different. It will be noticed. If you don't care then you can use the late model bumper cover.

    It can be repaired. Our oldest daughter got hit by another vehicle and it tore several holes in the bumper cover. When I took it to the body shop for repairs, they said they could mend the cover. I was skeptical...especially given the backup sensors...but when I picked it up I could not tell where it was fixed. It has been about a year now and still cannot tell. May be different on covers that are more brittle idk...
