Default Had a little incident...

Well I was involved in a fender bender and have a few deap scrapes in my rear bumper and the exhaust tip is a little crooked... Touch up paint is pointless but will get me by for the time being. The other car is effed, it was a Toyota MR-S and I guess all you can say is built Ford tough lol!

My question for you guys is:

Should I...

1) Buy a 03/04 Cobra bumper and have the "COBRA" filled in.
2) Buy a stock Mach 1/GT bumper and call it good.
3) Or???

The bad...



The good!

I would just get a replacement stock bumper. I hear when you shave the cobra bumpers then there is a chance of cracking and what not. That is after some time tho...

Cheesy?? I want the world to know what kind of car that red blur was that just blew past them!! That's why I have black reflective lettering on mine! They can read MUSTANG, day or night, without their spectacles!!

I'd just replace it with a stock one.

Actually, I did just that several years ago when a friend of mine rear ended me in a parking lot with his silver Terminator. Yeah, he was BEHIND me! LOL!
