Default rear bumper cover for my 89 GT poll

I am going to have to replace my back bumper cover on my 89 GT. paint is horrible and its has a slight bowing effect.....

all the aftermarket gt back bumpers do not have the mustang gt embedded in it. and the only great shape used gt back bumpers I find people are asking around 300 and a new aftermarket gt back bumper without the embedded mustang gt is around 138....

so heres my question do i put a cobra rear bumper on(289 from cervinis) or do I put an aftermarket gt back bumper on

right now i have flows with dumps at the muffler which i think sound great and get plenty of compliments on. but as we all know is rather loud inside the car sometimes. so if i put the cobra rear bumper on im going to bring my exhaust back out the rear...

right now either bumper is sounding good to me so im having a tough time making a decision so i figured get a little help....

im going to put lx tails in it no matter what and im leaving the gt wing on it

I voted for the cobra bumper but the saleen bumper looks sharp with the gt ground effects also. I would use the saleen myself just because most people use the cobra bumper. Just don't use tailpipes and the gt bumper and it will look fine.

thats what im leaning towards because im wanting to bring the exhaust out the rear but not on a gt bumper just doesnt look right but gt ground effects with cobra bumper with exhaust coming out the back just looks great imo....

93 cobra is the only good looking rear bumber for a fox. subtle but gets the point across.
