...that I fucked up my new bumper I JUST put on a few months ago, and it needs replaced. There was some ice in the middle of the road I thought I could clear. Long story short, I'm going to be replacing it with a stock sixxer bumper, and I've learned my lesson

Once I get it fixed and cleaned up I'll put up some new pics. I'm dreadin' it though, car hasn't been washed since August T_T

Also, not sure if this news is worthy of an entire thread or not, but this place has been slow as **** lately.

That sucks. I went through 3 Roush Stage 3 bumpers. This stuff happens with low bumpers.

I'm going with a new gt front bumper soon also... mine is looking pretty bad, and they aren't that expensive on american muscle.

Are you getting a used one, or what?

The Cobra R bumper is hard to live with. I went through two of them and don't miss it a bit. I have really been wanting a 99/01 bumper here lately.

That sucks. Gotta be careful with the cobra r bumper cause you pretty much can't clear anything. One reason why I haven't put the chin spoiler on my 03 cobra bumper. Bumper just barely clears the cement blocks in parking spaces.

That really sucks, man. I don't know how people survive at least in Florida or Pennsylvania with lowered cars and bumpers inches off the ground. I used to scrape just leaving my driveway and I had a car with a stock ride height.

Yeah it was a pain not being able to drive anywhere I wanted, every drive revolved around that bumper and how to avoid scraping it.

@Shadow_Stang
I think I'm just getting a new one.
