Adorning the extreme ends of the Datsun 1200 are chrome bumpers. Although the front bumper is shared by all models, the rear bumper differs between Coupe, Sedan, Van and Sunny Truck. The revised front bumpers have bolt holes for USA and Japan license plates (two sets of holes), while early ones are specific.

Front
The front bumper of a 1200 is a fairly straight chrome bar and has two small notches on the bottom for the front turn-signal lights:
The front bumper is in three pieces, although it is sold assembled as one piece.
- Two long front sections (left and right) that curve and the end to wrap around the side just a little
- a shallow degree binding piece (the front bumper is a slight V)

B120
STD utes used a flat-silver painted bumper (62651-G1001). DX utes used a chrome bumper (62651-H1001).
1978-up Sunny Truck used a rubber-ended bumper:
Also available in Chrome or Black.
New Zealand
Some B120 SportStar utes had black bumpers:
B140 Bakkie
The B140 Bakkie has a larger flat bumper, painted black, with lights in the face.
Rear
Rear bumpers differ by 1200 model, and are distinguished by the license plate lighting provision.
Also see: Rear License Plate Lamp
- Sedan rear bumper has a small light in the center facing up to illuminate the license plate
-
- Coupe bumper has a notch for the license plate:
-
- Wagon is smooth with no notch and no lights:
-
The regular rear bumper is in three pieces:
- Long center section that varies between Sedan, Coupe and Wagon
- Two end caps, left and right, that wrap around the side a little bit
-
It is sold as three pieces.
Rear Bumper Stay
Bumper + stay bolts straight to the rear panel... so a little bump may dent the body.
B120
Ute had two small rubber pads, and two black corner bumperettes:
Custom
Sunny B210 bumper fitted to Sunny Truck
B140 Bakkie
The B140 Bakkie rear has the standard two rubber pads, and also black corner bumperettes, with lights in the face.
1973 USA Bumpers
For 1973, USA models got large bumper pads to meet FMVSS No. 215. They also used redesigned bumper-to-body brackets. The chrome parts look similar but are different.
Implementation Details:
South Africa
1200s in South Africa, at least from 1973, were factory-fitted with Datsun 510 bumpers. These have a bit longer overbend, but are the same width.
Overriders Removed
Some models may have come without front overriders, but I think all models had rear overriders.
OPTION Overriders
Available from Datsun USA dealers were steel tubular overriders from ARMCO:
