Why are mine solid bumpers & all yours have vent holes?

I believe it's a generational thing*. The early bumper bolted directly to the frame horns and later years had brackets.
*not that you're old or anything...:)
 
A 2x4 and a rubber mallet. Hit the wood, not the bumper. Might even want 2 pieces of wood. One to put on the underside of the "hump" to add resistance, so you don't over do it, and one to put on top of the hump to strike with the rubber mallet.
YUP- 2x4 and hammer (y)
 
Talked to a guy. Electric blue 2nd gen with the bubble on the passenger side. I asked how that happened and he said he rubbed his outer bumper, the part (1" maybe) that sticks out past the fender, against another car. So i think the design of the bumper has it so that it's weakened in that area to the point that, if any real pressure is applied to the outer corners of the bumper, it will buckle in that area first.
