cobra bumper vs. 4.10's

urban96 · May 6, 2004

well my car was backed into by someone with a trailor hitch and it cracked a bunch of paint on my front bumper. im kinda strapped for cash right now and i dunno what i want to do first. i had already planned on buying a set of 4.10's a rebuild kit and a speed cal but i think i should take care of the front bumper first. what would you suggest doing?

i take it insurance isn't helping you? fix what's broken first. don't be one of those guys with primered parts on a painted car.

yep no help from insurance the spot isnt really that bad and i could live with it for a summer but im afraid if i dont take care of it now ill never have the ambition again to spend the $ to fix it

It is better to look good now and go faster later IMHO
Fix the bumper cover or get the cobra style. You could be different and get the Cervini Stalker front bumper cover.

And thats why you run 15's. J/K. I don't car about looks that much right now. I rear ended some one about 4 months ago that brake checked me and it cracked my R hood, bent my finder, broke my head light and turn signal. I bought a new head light and turn signal and pulled my fender out and have been driving it ever since. If its bad the replace the bumber, but I would get the 4.10's unless the bumber it about to fall off.
