I thought someone was making them, or could get reproductions I can't remember. There was a thread on here a while back about these, and yes, the absorbers are riveted on.

If they're riveted you could possibly drill out the rivets, and replace with bolts. Just a thought.

thats it. 4 bolts hold that to the car and a few rivets held the the plastic absorber to that.

i need to order another one of those myself.

I have a car that was hit in the rear quarter but that metal impact absorber that rots out is still good. If anybody wants it and lives in near flint MI I'll give it to you for $10 if you get it yourself.
