Default Which cobra bumper? 99/01 or 03/04??

What does everyone think...I have a silver 02 Gt and I am contemplating putting a cobra bumper on. Im really undecided about whether I should get the 99/01 cobra bumper or the 03/04 cobra bumper.I have the stock gt hood as well with the hood scoop.Help me choose the right one! Please post pictures if you have! Thanks

99-01 and keep your hood. The 03-04 looks kinda funny with that big hole in the front where the intercooler should be, unless you fab something up to take that big void spot.

Both look better than the stocker. I personally like the 03 with the cobra R hood!

i like the 03-04 better than the 99-01 but i dont think you would have to move the grill posts back on the 99-01. moving the grill posts back isnt hard to do either so id go with a 03-04 and have a peace of metal cut and painted black to fill in the hole for the innercooler.

yeah i think im kinda leaning towards the 99/01...I really did like the 03/04 but I asked my friends and they think it looks a little weird. I think the 99/01 looks pretty good with the stock hood.

As for the intercooler problem, im really considering supercharging so I would intercool it anyway lol

02 Ninja- car looks hot man

I vote 99/01, but then again I am a little bias...

I don't particularly care for the 03/04 on the GT's b/c of the hole....and also to me it seems that the fog lights kind of bulge out of the sides. I think the 99/01 is plenty aggressive looking but still somewhat of a subtle change....and def go with the mach 1 chin spoiler too.
