The Silver Shadow of the late 1976 production had bumpers changed from chrome to alloy and rubber, the energy absorbing bumpers that had been used in the United States since 1974 as a response to tightening safety standards there. Outside North America the bumpers were still solidly mounted and protruded 2 inches less, and the Silver Shadow was renamed the Silver Shadow II the next year. It was the last year of the original Silver Shadow name.
