Here's a Cobra conversion on a FR500C race car!
Just finished 3rd in (24hrs) Budapest BTW. Was in the lead, spunned, so it finished 3rd
The car was white when I had in the shop...

The PJ bumper looks very good and there aren't that many out there either. And thats a great price and you can see by BlueOvals feedback they are reliable.

it's actually the saleen parnelli jones/gurney bumper; as far as i know you can't get it from saleen directly (yet anyway) and i think the gt grille and the normal mustang headlights are a direct fit.


*EDIT* - never mind about what type it is... i should read more closely next time :P

i read from another forum that the saleen heritage bumpers were bought at the saleen auction. the reason for the sale was that there was some type of molding defect in them. not to mention that it's just the urethane piece no hardware, no chin, no grilles. i think you should have saved yourself the time and headaches and just bought the complete kit.

lol, if i knew where to get a "complete" kit, then i would, but no one sells the Saleen PJ bumper except for BOI.

Yeah, definitely find the full kit. Those were bought at the Saleen auction. No lower grill or chin spoiler or hardware. Forget it. And while they may have a decent eBay reputation, there are plenty of people that have had problems with BOI, especially with false advertising and bad customer service.

Here's a full kit.

EDIT
Here you go. A forums sponsor, at that. I knew I'd seen it somewhere.
