I finally got my cobra front bumper! The other day, my buddy took me to get my cobra bumper from this dude about 20 minutes away. He wanted it out of his garage and sold it to me for $45!!! I stole it from him! I cant wait to get this badboy on the car! Ive gotta either strip or DA the whole bumper to get all the aweful old spider cracked paint off there, then fill a few tiny spots with some urethane filler, then prime and paint it! Heres a few bad pics, and a pic of the car in its sad, current condition...

I might purposely "mess up" my front bumper for an excuse to get a cobra front end...

haha jk, but it's a good idea though...

I think that Super Sport front end will totally throw off the lines of the car

Way to go on the cobra bumper...they look even sexier with an ABC lip on em

Nah, im running clear ones. I dont even need the crystal ones, just regular factory cobra fogs. I'd love to find some used tho, that would be awesome. Im trying to keep this fix on a budget cause i dont have a lotta money, and i have to pay my insurance plus have money for school in the fall. I better make a lotta money this summer to feed ths habit, haha. So far i need to fix the bumper, get fogs, get a new rad, etc. If i have money left I'd love to get some subframes, and some pullies.

I will sell you mine. They are brand new from blue oval. They came with the smoked lights and bumper I bought from a friend and I don't want to use them because they do not match my smoked lights. I'm going to get the B.O. smoked ones. I'll get a pic up in a bit.

Same ones on BOI site for $77. I believe they are factory Cobra style. Anyway, they come with brackets and bulbs ... but no hardware. Dunno if you are supposed to use the original hardware or what there. PM'ed you for fellow SN'er price. Let me know if you want them.
