RE: front end- hit, need advice with parts

i think im going to end up going with the 03-04 cobra fascia because im getting it alot cheappper. the best SALEEN price non-fiberglassi can find is like 500. err =/ i can actually get the 01 for like 290~ right now. but im not feelin it as much.. i ran into a friend and hes helpin me out..

im rollin on chrome saleens with my midnight blue paint, and was thinkin about putting the s281 with a cobra front end? would it look clean? and if you look the 03-04s have different sideskirts, im thinkin about putting those on.

what should i do headlight wise? go stock? smoked? or should i get the hidprojector w/ lens? or just the hid lamps on the inside?

RE: front end- hit, need advice with parts

OMG do NOT put the saleen kit on with a 03/04 Cobra front bumper...the guy down the street from me did that with his Perf. Red GT and it looked SO BAD...i say do the 99/01 Cobra front and 03/04 sideskirts....as far as headlights i think you should do mine...black housing with clear corners....check my gallery....and i am installing my HIDs tonight and will post vids tomorrow comparing my current Sylvania Silverstars and the 8000k HIDs i got....i bought mine off an eBay seller....i would have gone through Stangmods but i wanted to keep my high-beams and the kit i got is a TRUE Bi-Xenon kit that has HID low AND high beams...but please do NOT put the saleen kit on with the cobra front bumper...the lines do not match at ALL...IMO the 99/01 Cobra bumper is the best looking one out there for the new edges....then put a chin spoiler on and a HID kit for the foglights....i plan to do that to my car and then install lights in the smaller circular opening next to the standard foglight opening with HIDs in all of them....that would only be for fun though not everyday/night use....then do the 03/04 Cobra hood, sideskirts and mirrors!

NOOO. LAZER. you got me wrong. i would never.

I want to go with the 03-04 cobra fascia.. unless im convinced the 99 looks better. the 03-04 side skirts, and the cobra spoiler. i was saying before if you have ever seen a cobra with the saleen spoiler. anyhow you think myset up will look clean?
