Think they’re the front bumper brackets for fenders. I could be wrong. It’s been 20 years

There are two plates like this (L & R) that help clamp the front bumper cover to the supporting metal. They're sort of big washers -- help distribute the stress, minimize risk of cracking/tearing around the bolts. Put an 'M' in place of the 'X' and you get the Mitsubishi part number.

I have no clue why you have two different sizes with the same number. That's weird.

Can you guess who has recently replaced his bumper cover?
