Arrow 03/03 cobra bumper with pics, but now a new issue

before anyone say anything my car is very dirty and very 4x4, i will be fixing this, also i know i dont have a grille or chin spoiler, this to will be fixed, but any way i got rid of my cobra r bumper for an 03/04, and im really leaning towords a new hood. but this will also mean ill have to get rid of my stripes, i can get a hood, get it painted and the striped taken off as well as the spoiler for around 1200, what should i do, open to all opinions,
1) keep the hood already on it
2)get a 3'' cowl
3) get a 4" cowl (my favorite so far)

before

afrter

think....all this money that is being spent could be saved. i mean spending 1200 on something that is unneccessary seems ridiculous to me. hell, you've probably already blown thousands getting it where its at. now you want to re-do it? think about all this money you are blowing. you have a lot of money invested into what, a little bolt-on GT with a cobra front bumper? maybe it's just me, but i don't understand it.

if you still have your heart set on wasting a bit of green, i would go with the 3" cowl. your car doesn't have the ***** to rock a 4".

Chill for a second and catch your breath. I guess you feel b/c it's a GT and not a Cobra it's not worthy of spending money on?

no..not at all. i just think the money would be better spent else where, thats all.

i used to own a GT and spent money on it, so i obviously don't feel that way. i probably could've worded it better...oh well.
