Default Just a thought...

Just a thought that i was looking into today waiting on larger transportation to move out of my room at college for the winter. I was thinking about doing the 03 cobra rear bumper and sideskirts to go along with the front bumper that i have now, but i just ran across the Sallen S351 rear bumper(the one with the center exit exhaust), and i fell in love with that and the wing that came on those cars as well. So how do you think that rear bumper and wing combo would look with cobra side skirts and an 03 cobra front bumper??? Just thought it would look sweet. Lemme know input. Link to the bumper here...

I think it would flow alright, but you better have some bite to back up that bark.

I think it would look awful. It needs the rest of the Saleen kit (which I also think is ugly) to flow with the rest of the body.

whatever you do, please have the saleen or cobra on the rear bumper filled in. nothing worse than seeing a GT with cobra or saleen written all over it. just looks tacky and almost "misbadged".

Ok, just wanted some opinions. And, even though some have expressed opposite opinions on this, i will never have whatever is molded into the rear bumper filled in. It does not look anywhere close to being right with nothing there. I saw a cobra rear bumper on a GT once with it filled in and it looked DISGUSTING!!! So i'll just leave the cobra in it alone. I mean someday i hope to have the power that a stock cobra makes or more so then i will have the bark to go with the bite. But til then, i'll be running around being a poser...with a really good looking mustang GT

don't you think you have enough appearance mods for the time being?
