Default Help Me Choose a New Front Bumper

So I got in my first wreck today. I was waiting to turn left, I couldn't see traffic that was coming from the right because cars were stopped at a red light from where my stop sign was. Then Some ******* thought it would be ******* hilarious to wave me out to turn left, and also make me hit some old guys 2010 F150.

My front end is all fucked up, bumpers almost ripped off. So give me some ideas of what to get?

Go for it, you will need the foglight bezel also. Well I guess you don't need it, but it looks a lot better with one.

Yeah those are the correct bezels, if your short on cash you don't need the lights but if not go ahead and get them.

The Cobra R bumper is the 01 cobra bumper. The front splitter is a separate piece. I'd go with the 03/04 cobra bumper, oh wait I did.haha I think your car needs to be lowered for the 01 to look good on it.

I personally love the 03/04 front, I like how it really changes up the front. 99/01 fronts do have a clean aggressive look to them, but almost too stock looking for my taste, no one but Mustang fans would ever even notice the change. You do need the cobra skirts to pull of the 03/04 front.

Yeah NY -> SC = $$$

@00blkstanggt
The bumper I have come with the splitter already molded in. It's not a separate piece, for me at least, I know what you're referring too.

Ok so the time has come. That site I linked above is run by a bunch of dumb terrorists that don't know what they're doing, so that deals out the window. Anyone know where I can get this thing for under $400 after shipping? Also, is there anything else that I'd need to order, like any brackets or anything? Or should the shop I'm taking it too have all that?
