Do you have a GT car? If so then it will work. All a Cobra bumper cover is is a GT bumper with a pony insert. If you have an LX then it won't line up.

It bolts up fine, it won't line up. Once you have the rest of the GT stuff then it'll line up. Get the bumper cover extensions too. I got Cobra extensions which don't have the front valance. They cost more but are worth it to get rid of that crappy scoop imo.

EDIT: (Cobra front bumper extensions)
