I would much prefer a bumper that didn't say anything on it.. Mine says MUSTANG GT.. and I wish it just didn't say anything.

I agree that it will look cleaner. Its kind of a principle of the matter thing. The picture is too dark to tell. If you took a picture of an OEM unpainted bumper in the same lighting, you wouldnt be able to make out if it said Mustang or not. A Mustang GT rear bumper says Mustang on it. This is just a bumper thats shaped like a Mustang bumper. Fact is, the responsible thing for them to do would be to advertise that it differs from the OEM bumper in that manner.

Well, its a crappy picture, and given that the ad says its for a GT and a Cobra up to 03, one might question the product. I would have sent a question to the seller first. But, honeslty, I think its better without the lettering. I wish mine didnt have it.

This. The only reason I like the Mustang letters on the rear bumper is because I can fill it with the black inserts to go with my black/red scheme. Besides that, my dream is to have a shaved 03/04 Cobra rear.
