OK so heres the deal, I bought my 1990 5.0 GT from a kid for $1500. Runs great and But needs some work.

My issue I am not a fan of the GT Body kit, and I want the LX. Does anybody have any good sources to replace the bumpers and body molding at a reasonable price? I tried salvage yards, but all they have are older stangs.

 

Junkyards are your best bet for the cheap way, but these bumper covers tend to get really ****ty in junkyards..

Late model restoration or year one has them for new but they rape you on the prices.

 

Yeah I have noticed the pricing on the new bumper covers. though my wife has blessed the mustang as my midlife crisis, i think she would rather me have an 18 year old girlfriend when she see what the stang may cost LOL

 

Most of the new LX front covers don't have mustang embossed in them anymore...

 

I just got back from a tow yard, he has an LX convertible. im going to get the passenger fender, headlights both bumper covers and the body molding for $200, and my GT body kit. i just have to do the work to pull it all.

Thanks for the input though

 

I do know a lot of body shops dont like to repaint the plastic parts so you may want to check

 

Well the paint i am going to do myself, so thats not an issue, i was just having a hard time finding the parts.

 

My LX rear cover doesnt have 'mustang' in the back.

I can tell that it has been rear ended once.

When i bought it the bumper was very shinny.

:'(

I feel scammed. haha
