Default Need new bumper

I need to get a new front bumper, foglights, and headlights. This will cost $50 more before shipping than buying the stuff off ebay. Should I get this or just the cover and lights seperate off ebay?

I'd order it from there.

that way everything is new, and you don't have to worry about somebody saying something is nicer than it actually is

[:@] i've had people send me stuff that was "like new" that was in horrible shape from ebay.

I ordered my new fog lights from LateModelResto, I recommend them highly. My bumber cover I found locally so I bought it.

i would try and find a factory bumber used, either locally or thru ebay. just as long as it only needs little work like its scratched at the most. It would probably be cheaper that way and you won't have fitment issues unlike aftermarket

I'd prolly buy everything separate.

I like the Stalker GT Bumper Cover. It's a little more expensive but looks real nice
You can get nicer (stylish) headlights
I bought my fogs new of Ebay for $60 shipped

Unless you're trying to go with the classic GT look, I'd go stylish. Change the hood next with a 2" Cowl. Would look awesome with your ride with the T-Tops down

I want the stalker bumper cover but from what I've seen it is about $400 more. I thought about maybe going with different headlights. For now I'm going mostly stock. Later I might get a different hood and stuff but I don't have the money.

As for finding a stock one, around here there isn't that many fox's and stuff so used parts aren't that easy to come by. There's only like 5 or 6 I've seen in this area.

and I live in Pittsburg, KS
