Don't get me wrong, I think they both look good. I wish the Cobra bumper never got ripped off, but it did. It's just cheaper and more convenient for me to put on the V6 bumper since I already had one in my garage, and it really doesn't look bad.

Also, keep in mind I have slightly different headlights and I'm also going to be tinting the GT fog lights. The headlights I have now are in the picture with the Cobra bumper. They have a black housing.

Just a side note, since I'm almost out of school I'm hoping to get a real job in the near future. And I'll for sure be just about doubling my pay check at my current job since I'll be able to work more. So I'm planning on looking for a V8 this summer. So the V6 may become a full-time DD in the near future... if my plan works out. But for now that's all it is, just a plan.

I have to agree with Notch. I don't know if it's the lighting or what, but I actually like the V6 bumper picture better. Nice car!

I added a better quality pic with the Cobra. I've only looked through my photobucket. I'm going to check my external hard drive for one with a more similar angle. The body lines just seem to match better with the V6 bumper. But it could just be the angle.

On anther note, my friend's buddy who owns a Cobra (Possibly the same color as my car. Not sure of the exact code and I only saw it once.) apparently bought a new bumper for his car. So I may pick up his old one for cheap if I decide I want a Cobra front and if it's in good conditions. So I could definitely use your opinions!

I still like the V6 bumper a little more. It seems to flow a little better. And I'm the guy who put a Cobra bumper on my daughter's 96. I guess you're lucky in that either one looks great on your car.

You guys aren't making it easy to decide. I haven't heard anything new on the Cobra bumper my friend's buddy has.

It would be nice to get the Cobra one, if the paint matches, since it would make things a lot cheaper. At the same time I just kind of like the lines of the V6 bumper a little better. However, to me it seems like the V6 bumper has kind of a smiley face look to it and the Cobra looks a little more aggressive. But I'm not sure if it's just the headlights. The black in the headlights seem to make it look more angry. I think I notice it the most when I look at my signature pic.

If the bumper matches, just get it and switch them out every now and then at random. :mrgreen:

The Cobra bumper looks much more aggressive and goes well with your rims. If it were me I would put on the v6 one as a temporary fix until I saved enough to go Cobra again.
