Question

Cobra bumpers and skirts


I was wondering where i can get them for really decent prices, most of what I'm seeing is way high in price.

Anybody know of maybe any aftermarket 03/04 bumpers and skirts that still fit good? I've heard of problems with aftermarket.

help me out guys.

I want cheap, but i want a good fit as well..

this is becoming a pain to make the car look cleaner.... if it were any other bumper i wouldnt have problems, but 03 cobra stuff is expensive.

why wont your hood close???

cheap and a good fit generally dont go hand in hand.i agree with the cobra stuff being pricey but you gotta pay to play

it didnt close because the hinge the hood closes on was bent, the piece of tubing that mounts to the rad support was bent in, so i just straightened it out and it pushed that hinge up enough so it locks without hitting the bumper now. the pics i took in my 'cobra bumpers 1/2 on thread' are with the hood closed and the way it is. but i strongly suggest getting those bumpers, and the foglight kit i got from LMR was all genuine ford except for the foglights which were DEPO, but they still matched up great.

you have a mustang haha, if you wanted a gas friendly car you should have bought a hybrid
but you can get things like ram air intakes or cold air intakes, a tuner set up for economy tunes instead of performance is probably your best bet to start with.
