Termi rear bumper (opinions please!)

DanTheMan · February 27th, 2008, 08:26 AM

OK so I know I'm gonna eventually go with the 03/04 cobra rear bumper on my '02 GT.. the thing is I don't know whether I should shave the letters off or have it say COBRA on a GT.. this car should have a KB 2.1 within the next 4 years or so, along with the silver SVT wheels, skirts, and front.. don't know if that makes a difference but I just want opinions please!

shave ftw

DanTheMan · February 27th, 2008, 09:33 AM

Thanks for the opinion, I agree. i figure if i start this poll early, by the time I get the bumper I'll have made a decision

Zatrekaz · February 27th, 2008, 02:32 PM

Ya, dont have t say COBRA when it's not, even if you have alot of Cobra parts... thats like ricers putting tons of stickers and badges on a car that is just a plain base model.

Plus the smooth/clean look on the rear bumpers, GT or COBRA, looks great

ChrisJ · February 27th, 2008, 06:32 PM

You have to shave...

Avaric3 · February 27th, 2008, 09:44 PM

i voted leave them, i think it just looks better that way. just make sure that soon youll be able to match or surpass the power of a cobra

HMUSN · February 27th, 2008, 09:45 PM

I would shave

Avaric3 · February 27th, 2008, 09:48 PM

everyones making me feel like a damn ricer

HMUSN · February 27th, 2008, 09:49 PM

your only one step above a ricer with a 6er

drazga97 · February 27th, 2008, 10:54 PM

so one step = + 2 cylinders?
how many steps does a kb amount for?

You don't like your back bumper?

Zatrekaz · February 29th, 2008, 08:31 AM

Also, what you could do....

Get one of the MUSTANG decals, or depending on your car color, the chrome steel ones and put them on the rear bumper.

It would not be fit into the rescesed cutouts like on a GT or V6 bumper, but I think it would look cool to have a shaved Cobra bumper with Mustang lettering in its place.

Xantho99 · February 29th, 2008, 08:38 AM

your not going to even notice a big difference in the cobra bumper if its black. i wouldnt waste the money buying the bumper and getting it shaved. imo

I thought about that.. I have the polished stainless inserts now.. just not sure if it'd look ok

I could always shave it myself, and imo there's a noticable difference
