pics needed: heat extractor hood w/ cobra/aftermarket front bumper

[chaos254]

I currently have a kaenan heat extractor hood and since my front bumper is pretty much shot(someone hit it and paint is coming off everywhere), i'm looking to get a new bumper. I dont know if i should get another stocker or get a cobra/aftermarket bumper. Price is an issue so cervini's is pretty much out of the question even though i love their stalker front....$479 Oh and the aftermarket has to look good with the stock side skirts/rear bumper because I won't be changing any of that.

that saleen looks good i also like the common cobra front bumper they both work well with the side skirts IMO

who did you get your saleen bumper from 95 opal it looks good

 

[RAD]

maybe you can get a 03-04 cobra bumper?

who did you get your saleen bumper from 95 opal it looks good

I bought the whole kit from abcexlusive.

 

[sn-95matt5-0]

how was the quality on the kit i thought about buying the saleen kit from them before i decided to get my cobra bumper

 

[chaos254]

man this is gonna be a hard decision ....i've narrowed it down to the saleen front bumper or the cobra with front lip. Both are from ABC exclusive and are the same price. I think the cobra with front lip is more sleek(factory looking) and then the saleen is more flashy but not overdone. arghh i hate these kind of decisions!

here are pics of the cobra with front lip from Punisher302's car:

I guess it comes down to:
Do you want fog lights or not?

I like the Saleen bumper better, I wish I had some pics of my car because I have the hood you are looking for but with the stock bumper. You can have fog lights with the Saleen bumper but then it doesnt look as cool.

Personally, I like Punnishers look. It looks hard core but just like you I would need to see the Saleen hood with the Cobra bumper/splitter.

Maybe someone can photoshop something up for us?

Cobra hands down

thats a toughy, but i think i would go with the cobra bumper

Punisher's is real nice. Seen it in person. But again, SLN vs. Cobra w/lip is a tough decision...

Im going with the Saleen. Can you run factory GT foglights with a Saleen bumper?

You can still have them on there, but it would look stupid, they wont line up with anything. Saleens never came with fogs from the factory...

I really like the Cobra w/ the lip, I wish mine had the lip on it I had a Stalker bumper from Cervin's before they upped the prices on them, thats one of my top 3 favorite front bumpers.

thanks for the kind words, gentlemen. unfortunately, though, my bumper (as do the rear and side skirts) desperately need a repainting! planning to do that w/in the next couple of weeks.

anyhow, the cobra bumper + lip lines up really well w/ the stock side skirts--a prime example is Matt's car.

Why do they need repaint? You painted them yourself didnt you?

cause he can't drive


The saleen is ok but all the holes kinda make it look funny

lol @ Jinx. correction: i can't drive *after a few drinks*. rather, i can't see raised medians in a city i'm not familiar with after a few drinks.

Kevin: aside from my incident w/ the raised median (which cracked the front & rear bumpers, and driver side skirt), i have a crapload of rock chips and what not, plus my genius of a painter didn't use flex agent in these parts.
