    i just bought my first comet,its a 74.so im new here.ive been looking at the pics and reading alot of other other posts.i really like the small bumper conversion.i was wanting to know if the front lower valance fom a 70-72 maverick was interchangable with the comet,or do i need to find a comet valance?i know the bumpers wont.just weighing my options on finding parts.thx for reading.

    :Welcome:to the board... The rear bumpers are the same for the Maverick/Comet. The front bumper is different between the 2. Good luck...
