    Thanks for that picture, thats a good idea on chceking out their forums lol. Also, I will be putting on the badges because I have the rear bumber as well. My last Mustang was a fake cobra as well and nobody ever had a problem with it, and i'd just tell people when they fell in love with the...

    Hood Choice 03 Cobra

    Hey, I had some front end damage on my GT. Have all the parts except hood/rear spoiler. Hood choice is either the stock 03/04 Cobra hood, or a double cowl R. Does anyone have any pictures of this hood with 03 front end? What are you guys opinions, go stock which looks really nice or...

    4.6 carb?

    lol these comments are funny but what they are trying to say is that going from your fuel injection to a carb is just not worth it. There are certain scenarios where staying with a carb or going carb can be worth it (money, time, experience) but fuel injection is the way to go.

    Front end damage How to go about fixing it

    Trying to fix some front end damage and was wondering how I should go about it. The damage seems to be after the struts but I dont think it's going to straighten out. I dont want to buy an entire front clip from the firewall on. Any body people out there got any ideas? If a shop could do...

    Selling the ride, what's a fair price?

    lol making fun of the ol military guys, but its funny cause it was burning a hole in my pocket and i bought a 10k fox body and got hooked up on an 83 camaro... Around here they ask like 15k for the things but they'll never sale at that price. Every once in a while somebody is smart and...

    Front end damage (need advise as in to fix)

    Right on man... I'm tryin to tell people but some people just dont want to believe. I have a buddy who has like a 02 or something monte carlo, nice nice car. I think with all the parts and it being on the road again he has less then 3k including buying the car. It was a crazy good deal, so...

    Front end damage (need advise as in to fix)

    Tonight I'm going to price it out, then add another 500$ for misc crap that I'll probably want/need in the end. I'm telling you guys right now, there is a reason people own salvage yards, and fix vehicles like this, because if you do it right, you save a lot of money. Parts are real cheap...

    Front end damage (need advise as in to fix)

    I dont know how you are coming up with your theory but in no way is it true. I can take all the parts off of the car, and drive it around, how does the radiator support and the 2 side pieces matter at all? I'm an ebayer and in most cases will use the cheapest product I can when it doesnt...

    Front end damage (need advise as in to fix)

    I bought it like this. I got a good deal on it. Its getting fixed, whether I do it myself or not. I totalled my civic and fixed it (not quite as bad) but I didnt do it the right way, I pulled the entire front end out and got it somewhat straight, then put all the parts on it, and got her...

    Spun Bearing, when does it "Knock"

    I have that exact same sound coming from my motor. I'm just wondering how I can determine the problem (valvetrain or bearing). What can I do to with the motor completely together? Or am I gonna have to pull the head and take a look? I swear I can work on a pushrod motor, but these...

    Front end damage (need advise as in to fix)

    Hey, I just recently recieved a mustang with some good front end damage. I have the radiator support part figured out (1 piece). But the 2 sides where the fenders bolt onto after the strut towers is where I am lost. Do these pieces tack weld onto the strut tower brace, as in I could purchase...

    02 GT body parts

    My 02 GT has quite a bit of body damage. I'm looking at getting a new hood, front bumper, rear bumper and rear spoiler. I want it to look sort of like an 03 Cobra. I'm not trying to make a clone, but I am trying to sort of mimick that look since IMO its a clean look. Where can I buy a...

    Drove an 04 cobra tonight!!

    Yeah I got to drive my buddies 06 GTO and that is the fastest stock car I've ever driven. I was impressed with the performance, especially for the price!

    Dang I wish I had some change right about now.

    I dont know how you could drive that car with a v6 still in it. All my old school Camaro's got 350's which are H/C/I cars but I couldnt imagine having to listen to a weak little 6 underneath the hood. I'm sorry but a car like that deserves a real motor. Not saying v6s couldnt outrun my...
