1972 appears to be a hit and miss affair with park/turn lamp colors and headlamp bezel colors. Chevrolet's Standard/Malibu Exterior matrix (revised December 1971) shows all Chevelle Standard (134xx) models as having bright headlamp bezels and amber lens (w/clear bulb) park/turn lamps; all Chevelle Malibu (136xx) models as having black headlamp bezels and clear lens (w/amber bulb) park/turn lamps. Researching over 200 Standard/Malibu series Chevelles from every plant and every time frame indicates either series could have any combination of headlamp bezel colors and park/turn lamp lens colors.

1972 Malibu series with amber park/turn lens and bright headlamp bucket. For more examples, see the Standard/Malibu gallery page for sport coupes and convertibles and the sedan pickup gallery page.
