I think our cars are perfect in every way... except that front end. I may change my mind after a chin spoiler, but I hate it stock. Its just the way the underside angles up... I like the front to be lower, if not matching, everything else (as it was on my 95 after a chin spoiler)

i like the 03/04 cobra front personally. but like stated above i dont plan on doing much exterior yet. one thing id do first is a cobra r hood, i HATE the water getting in my scoop.

If you plan on keeping the stock GT hood, i'd say go back to the stock bumper. IMO the stock GT hood doesnt look right on the 03/04 bumper.

+1
My older bro has an 01 cobra hood on his KBsilver01gtvert and an 03/04 cobra bumper, and it looks good, but the stock GT hood... not so much. Nothing beats the 03/04 cobra hood though... unless you can really pull something else off well - like lance's c/f hood on dsg... noice!

I just wish my front bumoer didnt have that stupid part where the license plate goes. I wish it was rounds to finish off the bumper!

For liscense plates, some states require a front plate, like IL

what does everyone think??
I think you should keep your cobra rear, get the cobra side skirts, get the stock front with a chin spoiler, an s-281 one peice wing, and a cervinis cowl hood. Then lower you car more, at least thats what I'm doing as soon as funds allow.

Not really cause the side skirts and bumper look stock just a suttle change, here's what I'm going for minus the hood.

im pretty sure it wasnt a whole bumper, it was an insert that you could paint and it would make the bumper look like it had no inset for the license plate. or you could mold that piece in and it would like it came stock with no inset. i forgot who made it but i've been looking for it lately because it was only like $30.
