Hard Rubber Bumper Pads Berlina 200

I'm sure some of you have had this issue: on the rear bumper are two hard-rubber (I guess that's what it is) black bumper pads. One of mine has fallen off. Any idea where I'd find another. International Auto Parts, which sells everything except anything I need for this Berlina 2000, has proven true to form.

Never mind. Shouldn't have sounded alarm so quickly. I found the part on the second call. I only recently got this vehicle and have a tendency to panic when I need what appears to be an obscure part. On my other car, I would wait ten years to find a 'bumper overrider.'

I have a 75 Nuova Super 1300, with black rubber bumper guards. The rear have become cracked.

Could you share your source? I haven't found any anywhere.

I sure will, but you'll have to wait until the one I ordered gets here. I forgot who I ordered it from. In any case, I actually found the one I lost. If the one I'm getting fits your car, I'll be glad to sell it to you and I guarantee you won't pay a 'handling' charge.

Ish-man,

They are very hard to find, only one time I have seen them couldn't get them.

Ish-man,

I am not sure if you are aware of this, but the rubber pads on bumpers of nuova super 1300/1600 are unique to the model as far as I know. The ones on early European alfetta sedans look similar (especially the one on alfetta 1.6), but I have not had a chance to compare them side by side so I am not 100% positive. I assume that the rubber pad Billig got from Alfa Parts is the one you see on 1750 (late GTV/berlina), 2000 (also GTV/berlina) and 69-74 giulia supers so they cannot be used on you car. Look at the attached pictures (the pic of blue nuova is the one you posted here on bb earlier this year).

Tiger, we are aware of it, Giulia nuova uses and some early Alfetta's only rubber no metal involved like the Giulia 1750/2000 models.

They are available. I bought some for my Berlina a while back. I think I got them from Alfa Hurtienne (I think). It might thave been ReOriginals though. You'll need to get some clips to hold 'em on (the little square ones with flanges...they are metal). At least that's what I used.
