No exp. with that site/seller...I have heard OEM quality is VERY top notch on our years front/rear bumpers though.
Mine is an OEM cobra front I got from a guy who ran off the road and had a lot of spider cracks in the paint. He got a new one from the ins. and sold his for $100. IIRC the car ran off the road, threw a ditch, spun and all this was directly impacted on to the front bumper. Not one tear, rip, warped section on it....that says something to how tough the OEM one is, I think he had to have a fender replaced but the bumer was still good other than paint.
I am a over the top cheap-arse...but would really look for OEM bumpers...maybe a saleen. The rear I would either look for a v6 (just says mustang like the 94-95 cobra's) or a 96+ cobra take off. IIRC 5.0resto sells OEM bumpers and they are not TOO bad in price. They are not painted but I would rather have something like that painted on the car to match even moreso with your red paint...my .02.
Good luck.
Some guy is selling an OE bumper str8 off his Cobra that is Laser REd, but has scratches and scuffs all over it, but he wants $249 plus shipping.
Anyone have any good experiences with sites, shoot me a link!
Thanks

Im talking about taking a 331 with Vortech and 500RWHP and putting Cobra stuff on it....is that so wrongThe Snake emblems look awesome. I guess my Fauxbra wouldnt be as good as a true 240HP Cobra :loll
Anyway, for now I just need some advice as to who/where to get a quality bumper at a decent price.
Thanks all!!

Clones are one thing, badging it is another but thats JMO Cobras have a certin ora about them with limited build numbers that I dont think should be coppied regardless of the HP total. If the seller has a good feed back and others have said the part is a good quality then get it.
Doesnt cloning mean "badging" too. Clones are copies. I like the "AURA", and I think they look cool. Im still apt to bypass all except the front anyway, becase the rear bumper is a lot of coin. Thanks!

you can clone w/ out the badging if you do bumpers and the hood exc exc. Also have to factor in paint to the cost of the bumper
I don't see anything wrong with Cobra stuff on a GT as long you can back it up.
Got my rear bumper from a semi local junk yard for $100.I bought the front brand new from 50resto.com.
I dont mind the front bumper its the back one that says cobra on it because well its not a real cobra no matter how fast even though that does sound pretty sweet. And low 5.0's car is sweet as hell too.
thats what i would do. if you know what your looking for you can spot a cloneDo what I'm doing, Cobra front bumper and smooth( no letters ) rear bumper.
That way someone behind you doesn't know if it's a Cobra or GT lol.

brakes are a big giveaway (front+rear), the airbag also says cobra on it
94/95 cobra rear bumpers only said "mustang"
94/95 (not sure about 96-98) had the "crab-claw" spoiler with the built in LED and the trunklid did not htave the 3rd brake light in them
