Here are some pics after the Cobra rear bumper and Cobra R hood. Hopefully around May it will get painted. I pulled the rear bumper in almost an inch on each side so that it doesn't look like it sticks out so much compared to having no side skirts, and I really think that it looks awesome. You can make your own judgements. Please let me know how you honestly feel, what you like and what you don't like.

Yeah, I like the whaletail, but no one really has this wing so I thought it would look sweet. Thanks for the compliments. I wasn't sure of the bumper at first, but I actually think that it turned out awesome.

I love the spoiler and the hood, but I'm not feeling the bumper without the ground effects. The character line on the bottom of the bumper cover doesn't have anything to tie in with on the body and looks kind of out of place to me. But then again, its not my car.

Not feeling it w/the stock front bumper. The hood looks good though. I plan on going w/the Saleen kit for my LX and swapping the cowl hood for a Cobra R

Yeah it is the Steeda Aero wing. I love it. It looks good, but very subtle. I think that if you don't know what you are looking for you could very easily overlook it.

Here are some pics of the hood that aren't so washed out. I think that it's gonna look real sick once it is painted.

LOL, the reason I haven't taken any shots from the rear is because on the driver's side when I was putting on the bumper and wrapped it around to put the screws in the wheel well, both heads broke off the screws. So tomorrow I am hopefully going to get an easy-out kit and take the two stuck screws out and get some good hardware. I just used the screws that came with the bumper and they were pretty much junk. 2 out of 4 of them snapped. As soon as I get it fixed I will get some pics from the rear for you. Sorry man.

I have to give Design Concepts credit. I was a little bit weary about buying a hood and bumper from them because they are not Cervinis basically, but their products are extremely nice. They went on nice and the gaps look really good. Also there prices were unbeatable. I paid a lot more for the Steeda wing and it didn't fit nearly as well, it almost seemed warped, but I got it to straighten out for the most part.

Very nice ride!!!

I like the rear bumper. I'd love to put either that or a Saleen rear valence on my car. The only problem I have with the Cobra bumper (and I'm very peticular about small details) is that the 'molding' is the GT molding, and is slightly larger than the LX moldings on the side of the car. You cant really notice it unless you know that the moldings are actually different. Otherwise it looks awesome!
