Before

After 6 months. The driver's side had someone back into it...

It was already dead. I hit it as soon as I got back from Iraq when I was on vacation in Florida. Came around a turn and there it was. That opposum hit the bumper, h-pipe, drive shaft, mufflers, rear end and managed to get some of it on the rear bumper (on the inside of it). It stunk for about 2 weeks. I couldn't pressure clean it off. If you'll notice the part where the opposum hit actually discolored more than the rest of it.

Well, I know driving 'behind' you, the road ahead is cleared ..... Seriously .. That really sucks. The car looked so good too.


Looking forward to the SALEEN set-up. Shouldn't be as bad.

If you lived around here it would be really easy, people cant drive at all, kinda makes me enjoy having a truck because if they hit me the only damage is to them cuz my hitch is gonna hurt.. if they go under that they get tips and wheels. I need to get smashed so i can get another stang....

That bumper looks good but there's no way I'd put it on my car. It wouldnt survive getting out my driveway.

Thats what i thought too when i got the cobra r, my parents live on a rock road and has some ruts cut out from their 4x4's and i would go in 1st gear letting it almost idle and still scraped the bottom every now and then, it really changed my driving habits alot when i got it, made be really careful

It's crazy low with 17 inch wheels for sure. With 18's though it picked it up and I don't scrape hardly at all any more. I've pretty much learned where I can and can not go with the car. It's awesome though when there's paint on it though.
