BUMPER - FRONT AND REAR - PAINTING PROCEDURE FOR SERVICE REPLACEMENT PARTS (PLASTIC BUMPERS)
FORD 1986 TAURUS
LINCOLN-MERCURY 1986 SABLE
All 1986 Taurus/Sable front and rear bumper service requirements can be satisfied with five "Service Only" (prime painted) bumpers and two production
bumpers. In order to properly identify the "Service Only" bumpers, the previously used symbol for "prime" paint (000) would be used in the part number
suffix. For example, production part EXXB-17750-AWA (multiple body colors) would be identified as EXXB-17750-A000A (low gloss black prime).
The following "Service Only" parts can be substituted for the production parts shown below.
