I will stick my neck out and say it is a real GM piece. I go by the injection mold plug right in the inside center of the “V”. And I will have to look, seems there is some overspray on the backside (mine may have been repainted at one time, though?

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.
