I'm trying to piece together a complete rear bumper. Can anyone tell me what this is? It was attached to a splash pan.
Bentley photos don't show it and I could not find a photo in the forums or gallery. Although the WW site shows it as part of their mounting hardware. A picture would be a great help.

It goes on the inside of the corner as a sort of backing plate for the splash pan mount.

It should be curved and there is a left and right side since the holes are offset.

Did all busses come with rear bumper splash guards?
If so, what color were they? Same as the bus? Same as the bumper?

Yes. Black except for Barndoor Deluxes were Sealing Wax Red according to several members on here.

Thanks, Everett. That's been driving me crazy.
Is the WW "kit" a decent repop?

I bought all their repro stuff for my Double Cab, except the actual bumper blade. It was fine for my truck but for a nicer Bus I would try to find original parts.

My aprons were badly bent and twisted. After looking at the pictures and straightening everything, it all fits. Thanks
