    Hey everyone. I bought some stainless steel black chrome bumper inserts for my 96 cobra, installed them, and they look awesome. The problem is, my R got messed up... I have been asking everybody who sells inserts if they could sell me just the R for a special order, but so far I haven't had any luck. The place I bought them from basically said too bad, and aren't being much help (dicks :notnice:). They said once they got some extra letters they'd let me know, but I've contacted them several times over the past few months and I've gotten in response was "not yet."

    Does anyone know where I can buy just the single R bumper insert? Or who would sell it to me?

    -Joe

    I really don't know how it got messed up to tell you the truth. I look back at my bumper a while back and there's just a huge scratch on it. On the bright side, it was better the bumper insert than my bumper. So who knows how it happened

    It's probably of natural cause, I have the SS Inserts on my car's arse and I have tiny scratches on it but they are not that noticeable. Paint them black:nice:

    It's a deep scratch, like someone put it there intentionally, so painting them is out of the question. I have one more site I'm waiting for a response on, and if nothing, then I'll just take my losses and buy a set of plain black ones for cheap. They will probably go better with my tail lights I'm about to tint soon anyway.

    And Thomas, just a suggestion, your car is sick, but it would look even better if you tinted it all out, since you got the black rims and the black bumper inserts, get some tinted headlights (or headlight covers) and order some nite shade spray tint or tint overlay kits and do the fogs, tails, and side reflectors.

    windows are tinted, theyre just rolled down in the pic. Smoked headlights will be ordered one day, as well as tint for the tails, but more go-fast mods will be installed first (ported blower, 2.93" upper / 4lb lower + tune).
