i know there are fitment probs first off, but i thought a company made a hood that fixed that prob., and the reason i dont want both the hood and bumper is that i just got the 10.5 bullitts on the back and i think what would be essentially an 03 cobra on the outside would look funny with bullitt rims, so i am planning on adding a mach1 lip to the bumper and calling it a day, any thoughts...?

The fitament problem you are referring to, is when trying to fit a 03/04 cobra bumper on a car with the stock GT hood.

You can install a cobra hood on a gt with the stock bumper with no issue, but can't install just a 03/04 cobra bumper onto a GT without also installing the cobra hood (or a hood that you can modify to make fit.. it'll hang over too much in the front supposedly.)

Or you can do what we did.. When putting a cobra bumper on a gt, we drilled 2 new holes and mounted the ears (section near the gril area) back further and that corrected the rubbing. So in theory, wouldn't you do the oposite to make the gt bumper fit well with the cobra hood?

The GT bumper and 03/04 Cobra hood combo leaves a nasty gap between them;

The 03/04 Cobra bumper and GT hood combo is a tight fit, and recommend what TL1000S says. Looks

How much does it cost to get a new hood painted and installed? I'm liking the Cobra hoods more and more.
