Well after a few weeks debate I decided to keep the stang for a little while longer... As much as I want a cobra I can't find (or afford) the ones that I want. and I have my car payed off and modded the way I want right now. (Id have to start from scratch with a new one)

So... to celebrate, I went and ordered a cobra front bumper direct from Ford for $200.00 (super cheap for here) and I took the spoiler off and plugged it. Wheeee!!!!! That was fun.

Yeah, anyways... I should have the bumper in a week (it's from the usa). then my car will have a sleepover party at the body shop to get some long awaited body work done...

I'm liking the look of the non-spoiler. I just put some plugs in there so I can change back if I decide...

I'm going to wash the car and maybe take a few pics to celebrate!!!

mransr:

thanks for the comment... but...
I can't get touch up paint anymore... I have to get a paint place to mix some up... it is quite expensive... last year I had got some and it was $35 for a small container. But we'll see what they do when I have it in the shop, but until then they are black... but it doesn't look too bad cause it matches quite well...

i like the look of your car wingless, not many sn-95's can pull it off. But w/ smoked headlights and huge exhuast tips it makes it look pretty burly

cobrared-96-GT lol... when I hear the word burly, I think of a largely overweight man with a long dirty beard, wearing plaid and dirty dickies... lol...

But I'm assuming that was a compliment, so Thanks

Have a picture directly from the side? It looks to me as if the tips actually hang out past the bumper?

superstang: thanks

d98Gt: they do go about 1/4 inch past the bumper if you look stright down... just the way I likes 'em!!
crazyhorse99: thanks... I don't think I'll go with dumps though...
and shapeshifter: That is coming soon, I decided against it before, but now I decided to get some "lower" lowering springs... after the body work ( so in a month or two)

btw what would be good for some springs? I dont' want it on the floor, I was thinking some eibach with some c/c plates... any suggestions? I have mach1's in there now, and I think another inch would look good....

can't wait for that new bumper!!! anyone have some cobra fogs that they want to get rid of?? if so... pm me
