Well I dont know if many people have noticed, but I change my mind about my car alot. After seeing a few cobras in my town Ive decided Im gonna buy the cobra front and spoiler, and a gt rear. What I cant decide on are wheels..I was going to use black fr500s when I was planning on a mach1 style but Im not sure how that would look. Im torn between


(18x9)
and
(18x9)
the fr500s are my first choice, does everyone think they will look good with a cobra body?

Also, does the mach1 grille delete fit with the cobra bumper? Im not sure

 

well u dont get fr500's if ur going for mach 1 i lovbe the mach 1 rims and there amazing if u do mach 1 which will be cheaper u ahve to do the rims as for the cobras i love the 03 cobra but do it all from ford so everything is done right also y the gt rear bumper just get the cobra rear

 

the 500's are real nice

 

I like the 03/04 cobra wheels but thats me...If you want to knwo anything about switching your front bumper, just ask me

 

a v6 with a cobra rear is suicide on these or any mustang forums lol...the gt bumper is cheaper and from what Ive seen is the same except it says mustang instead of cobra. I know the mach 1 is cheaper, seems like everyone with a mustang has the chin spoiler/grill delete style. I wanna do something different and from the prices Ive seen in shouldnt be too bad.

Cobra front $350 + paint - about $500
Cobra spoiler $500-600 from dealer + paint and install - about $1000 Ive heard
GT Bumper $190 painted
GT Side Scoops $150 + paint - $200?
Rims and tires will be around $1500 Im guessing

so about $3400 and my appearance will be perfect :-)

 

A little off for teh Cobra front..

Cobra front = $289 (where im getting it )
Cobra Chin Spoiler/Air Deflector =$89
Cobra Foglight bezels = $30
Cobra Foglights = $30
Shipping for all of that stuff = around $100
Paint = $200-$400
Realizing thats a crap load of stuff just for a bumper = Priceless

IMO just keep your v6 bumper its more streamlined, and exhuast commming from underneath it looks sweet

 

ok but if he gets the cobra front its just as bad

 

The mach 1 chin spoiler wont fit the cobra. Besides, it already has a small lip on it from the factory on the cobra front bumpers. And like springsstangs said, your prices are WAY off. Id say off by at least 1000 bucks. If thats what you were quoted, go somewhere elese.

 

you should reconsider your purchase.
Summit bumper comes with foglights and the bezel for 350. Shipping Im not sure about, but paint shouldnt be more than 150 probably less, my dads friend is the owner of a body shop in plant city. I can get stuff done for about 1/3 the price of a dealership.

I saw the chinspoiler/air deflector on a cobra today, where are you ordering yours from?

and I know the mach1 chin spoiler wont fit, I wanna know if the grill delete still fits.

 

Yeah but you have to buy it

 

Show me where on summit...im getting mine form a guy on SVTP

 

I cant find it on the website, IN MMFF its on the 4th page in the july 05 issue.

says the part # is FMS-M-17957-A50

 

hey PS thats an 01 Cobra bumper...alot diff from an 03/04

 

hmm, well i like it and it fits 99-04 so Idk

 

If you want a Cobra wheel I like these two.

 

How about these for the Mach 1 look.

 

Those Black Cobras Are Bad *****. Know Whata Mean?

 

Yes they are.If I ever change thats what I'm going with.

 

Heres an 99-02 cobra



03/04 cobra

 

Yea I was looking at some on ebay.

I will probably go 01 cobra just because its so much cheaper.

Stock Spoiler
V6 scoops
04 V6 hood

All I have to buy is front and rear bumpers

 

go with the FR500's they are sexy although the cobra's are nice too be original

 

if u go 99 cobra go for cobra r

 

99 isnt cobra R, 2000 is. And that bumper is very impracticle. My buddy had it on his 03 gt with eibach springs and he couldnt go anywhere. he ended up cracking it right down the middle lip.

 

Lance, where could I get those polished wheels from (see post #15)? Besides MT, who else sells products for our cars?

 

Matt, I think what hes saying is if he gets the 99 front, then get the 00R splitter. The real deal uses a 99 front bumper with the lip attached with clips of some kind I think.

 

Whatever you do...DO NOT get the 95 Cobra R style wheels. They look disgustingly hideous on the 99+ body style.

the 03/04 Cobra wheels or FR500 would look awesome.

Agrees with Phil.
