Confirm measurements but I; along with others here, believe it’s GM.

One of many "innovations" that originated at Pontiac





Is this John Delorean in the commercial ?

No that's not John Delorean,it's actor Paul Richards.
This one's really humorous,with Paul narrating as well.

William, do you know if the outer brackets were attached to the bumper and painted, or black?
Thanks
Buddy

The outer brackets appear to have been dip-painted black, then assembled to the painted bumper. They are not the same as the chrome bumper outer brackets.

I believe it to be original and have one in my office... that bumper was removed from the car at some point when the car was painted and it was then painted at the same time to match the body color of the car

If I am not mistaken they were painted by the manufacturer due to the flexible paint.
