Default Ebay Cobra front bumper..

Well last week i order the 179.00 (shipped) cobra front bumper off ebay..I know many people don't trust them but,i figure i give one a shot..It took about 1 week to get..the place i order from stay in contact with me an even call me with tracking number when they shipped it.

First off it came pack super good it surprise me..
Here a pic after i got it unwrapped.


It was very high quality again i was surprise.

One of my side brackets was bent so i was even more impressed when they sent a set with bumper.



As far as install it went really smooth. You have to rivet the brackets to the side of bumper comes with rivets.i just pick up a cheap rivet gun at a auto part shop for 10 bucks work well. then it just bolt in to the side under the finder with two nuts.

as far as the upper part where the grill is that a lot of people say you have to move back or you will have bumper to hood contact .I did not,my hood closed good maybe cause it a cowl hood idk..But over all it fit way better then i would ever think it would..To me it was a perfect fit.

I still need to get a set of fogs an i am havin hood an bumper painted next week.
I pick up the foglight bezels at a ford dealer for 15 bucks ea.

Here some pics

you can see it line up grate with no gap.










So i think it is well worth the money.If you want a 03/04 cobra bumper an don't want to spend over a grand this is the way to go..

Thats who I bought mine from. Give him the paint code and it will be color matched. Mine turned out perfect, shipped without any scratches, and the mounting hardware was already installed on the bumper. I offered like, $275 shipped and he accepted the offer.

What material is it made out of? It looks like it fits pretty nice.
