And remember your hood probably wont shut so just know your going to have to make adjustments whether its drilling mounts closer in, moving your headlight assembly boxes down, bending your hood latch up or whatever. Its more than likely gonna take something like this to make it fit.
I had to cut a little of the the header panel and redrill where the bumper fastens to the top. But I feel mine looks much nicer than a lot cobras I seen when closed. It has a lot less gap. Mine had clear coat and was poly from pershing but it's been about 3.5 years ago.

Bumper from pershing. Lights pigtails and bezels from resto mod 50 I think it's called and chin spoiler from a friend at ford.

Sorry it has an intercooler. I also have a v6 hood now.

Great point! I almost forgot this. If you get a true OEM style Cobra bumper, youll have body gap issues, particularly with the hood. I think ABCexclusive sells a specifically GT style bumper. Sidenote; won't matter much if you get the matching hood down the road.

And WhiteVenom, you said yours actually sits higher? Mine seems to sit a little lower and leave a nasty looking gap with the GT hood. Could just be mine. Body gaps vary car to car and I had my hands full with the mess the previous owner left me.
