Default need some opinions...

ok, i bought my 01 cobra about a month ago. the original owner of the car had someone back into him with a hitch, so theres a dent in the front bumper...now i was going to replace it, no big deal. but should i go and but the 03 cobra bumper on it? Will it fit right? or should i just replace it with the bumper it comes with? need some opinions because im stuck on the fence on what bumper would look best...also where can i find either an 01 bumper or a 03-04 bumper? im not a big fan of ebay cause i've been ripped off before...is there a mustang website that sells them?


Thanks in advance!

i would go with the 01 one, just because it looks best with the mach one chin spoiler.

found one 03-04 [click me] oem
theres an aftermarket one for almost half the price of the oem one.

you'll also need this for each side
and this
i believe that the 01 fog lights can be used with the 03-04 cobra bumper not sure? someone else can help with that

well for body panels etc. i usually look in the links provided. other than that link there is others but i dont know their web adress internet. to get it painted, your gonna get different price quotes everywhere you go. i suggest ppg paint as it is the best out there.
and dont go to ford to get a bumper, unless you got the extra cash to throw at them. other thing i suggest is junkyards, but i doubt you'll see any cobras there. later
