My bumper looks like crap.
I love my Mach1 grill delete & my chin spoiler.
The Cobra bumpers have a grill delete built in and painted, and I think it looks cleaner.
So should I get:

-99-02 Cobra Bumper with Mach1 Chin Spoiler
-03-04 Cobra Bumper with Mach1 Chin Spoiler
or stay with
-01 GT Bumper with Mach1 Chin Spoiler

stay with the gt bumber and chin spoinler. buy the cobra rear bumber. that looks cleaner than the gt IMO.

I definatly prefer the 99,01-02 cobra to the 03-04. If I had an 03-04 cobra I think I would actaully change it. I can't stand the fog light openings. Like everthing else about the car.

Cobra rear bumper?
It says "COBRA" on it.
That wouldn't be right.

well that can be smoothed/filled. I would not give a sh$t though. a cobra front bumber is not a stock gt. it is from a cobra.

It is all sematics. technically they are both being a poser so to speak. if you like the look go for it.

Ditch the chin spoiler and try and get the 01 Cobra kit, Ford discontinued it but you might be able to find some places that still have it. I have one and I LOVE it!

I don't think our cars look complete without the chin spoiler.
I'd like to keep it.
I think it looks great on the 01 Cobra bumper.

I've seen pics before and it looks really bad on the Cobra bumper because it doesn't line up. If you line it up with the front then it doesn't go all the way to the wheel well and obviously if you line it up with the wheel well it sits pretty far back. But it's up to you obviously, that's just my $.02. Check out my CarDomain site I have pics on there with my Cobra front.

The 99-01 Cobra bumper with the Mach Chin spoiler looks pretty good.
I'm wondering if I should just get another GT bumper and throw the chin spoiler on it.

I like the stock GT nose with grill delete, chin spoiler and 01+ headlights. Looks mean as hell

That looks awesome!
Does the chin spoiler fit flush with the Cobra Bumper?
It doesn't look like it meets the fenderwell.

wow I wondered how the 99 looked with a spoiler and man is it nice!

The gap doesnt bother me though since there was a gap with the chin spoiler and the wheel well on the GT bumper as well if you lined it up with the front edge of the bumper.
