67-72 Ft. Bumper guards

Does any one have a good picture of how they bolt to the stock bumper? I picked up a pair of nos chrome guards and can not figure out what I'm missing or doing wrong. Bottom bolts line up and the top ones do not. Is ther a bracket I am missing?

Any help would be gratlt appreciated!

The NOS guards require you to drill holes in your bumper...Repros do not!

You would have to drive in a straight line all the time. Probably not too practical in my opinion.

67-70 were short/no rubber and mounted wide.71-72 are tall w/rubber(smooth)and mount at bumper bolts using one hole(upper) and a clip on the bottom edge.GM supplimented the latters with a type with rubber that had some ridges in them.
