Mike, from original cars I've seen the lower rear bumperette bolts were clear zinc (silver) plated. They are often misread as phosphated because the original plating has been sacrificed over time. Here is a photo of a 22K mile 9C built Norwood survivor.

Lloyd,
I agree with the bolt in your picture should be clear zinc plated. I was talking about the other bolt "RSC" head mark that looks like black phosphate. My bolt that hold the bracket to the bumper guard shows no evidence of being black phosphate plated. |

Mike, from original (and NOS) examples I've seen the bumper hook is silver cad and the bolt is either cad or zinc.

Perhaps it could be yet another change made sometime during the production year? http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=15233.0

Bolt used for bumper guard bracket attachment clear zinc but lower bolt attaching bumper guard to lower panel phosphate. That is how Skip’s car is....

Before I get my bolts plated, can we get an official answer on how the bolts that attach the bumper guards to the rear valance are plated.
