Default bodykit

ok i know we all have diffrent views on bodykits and cloneing but here it goes, as u all know i have a 02 Laser Red Mustang, im looking at a bodykit kit to through on, now heres the tricky part, it has to stay full muscle car. ricing is a major no no. I like the cobra look but all i can find is Cobra R with a huge f*****g lip on the front. How about stalker bodykit or blackwidow 2?
Id like a rear bumper that has full circle cut outs for the exhaust but i cant find .
Thanks for any help.

i think the full circle cut outs on the back look very very ricy. i dont like em at all. go w/ a gt, roush, or saleen bumper instead. the 99/01 cobra bumpers can be hard to find. you just have to keep looking around in classifieds and if you want to pay the money you could see what it would cost to get one from a ford dealer.

My suggestion is this:

GT Rear Bumper with 3.5" Exhaust Tips

Saleen Front Bumper/Side Skirts

My personal preference, I dont like the saleen rear bumper..

if i get a saleen front bumper and side skirts what bumper should i go with, see i dont want it to look like a Roush or a saleen because its not. I live in a very very high muscle car area, and the ppl can just hear the exhaust and tell the diffrence.

Just a saleen bumper and sideskirts arent a dead giveaway. Most people wouldnt even notice its aftermarket to be honest, because it looks SO close to stock. Only other mustang enthusiasts would notice. I did like the Xenon body kit front bumpers but I never could find the one I liked forsale.

Well I like body kits, however, I don't believe in making your car look faster than it is, in other words, spend the 4-5K it's gonna take to get the kit, have it installed and painted, and spend that money on performance mods first. Then, later, spend that extra cash and get a body kit. You said you live in a muscle car area, well, make your car run with them first. The stalker looks great, but the black widow is just too ricy for me.
