Default which bumper to replace my Stalker kit bumper.

the bumper came on the car when i got it and i dont really like the Fox body lines on my 98 and its too high compared to the side skirts. right now im thinking maybe one of the Saleen f. bumpers. i like the Cobra R bumpers but might be a bit too much for my car. i would like to get a new bumper before i repaint my car ( dont like the black r. bumper and side skirts.)

my car now:


hers just a few im lookin at, i dont want anything ricy so stayin around Ford styling
Saleen(round)

Saleen( straight)

Cobra R

i dont have the stock bumper. and i'd rather have my car be different than the what seems like HUNDREDS of mustangs around here

i wish they had one of the stock 99+ Cobra style bumpers for my body style... and not just the cobra r

To be honest.. your cars different now and it looks like a turd. Sometimes the simpler things are the most unique. I would bet more than half the gts on this sight have a diff front bumper than stock..most being 03,01 cobra fronts.

It wouldnt look bad if you painted the stalker kit.. those arnt that bad.

but yeah most of the 99+ GT's DO have cobra bumpers but there arent many 94-98's with other bumpers.

if you can get the bodylines to line up i think it looks goooood! but people seem to have a hard time getting the lines to line up.

From that angle. From every other angle, it looks like crap.
