03/04 Cobra front bumper (aftermarket)


I purchased a front and rear bumper from Blue Oval Industries, and the rear was genuine ford, and the front was aftermarket. But those of you who aren't convinced that the aftermarket bumper will fit, it does. It fits better than the rear did, actually.
I'm trying to save alot of you money by telling you this, because I know how expensive the genuine ford bumpers are.

So here are the pictures. Hope this convinces some of you.

I paid 650 for both, shipping was about $200 but I'm in Canada So the states would be cheap. Ford wants 568 just for the rear so...

How was the fitment with the GT hood? I have a Cobra bumper bein painted and shipped to me sometime this month. I was told that the GT/V6 hood had a issue with it but it was fixed by moving the mounting holes on the header panel back about 1/2".

How did you compensate for yours? Detailed info would be much appreciated and +reps

the fitment kind of sucks, i had to raise that hood latch up a bit and move the bump stops on each side up a bit so the hood didnt shake, but it doesnt touch anymore, so its all good

How is the alignment with the fenders on the hood? Does the hood protrude up a bit over the fender?

And if I am correct, it took moving the latch up and the hood stops? How hard was it to move the latch up?
