I use to fix the bumper sag on fox bodies and 03 Cobra's with some 3M two sided tape and a thick Home Depot yard stick on the underside of the cover. Once the bumper cover is locked into place the yard stick can be removed.

Can you elaborate more on what you did Jeff? I'd like to fix the ugly sag under my plate on my Cobra.

I pulled the cover off when I painted the car and used 3M two sided tape on a thick "Home Depot" yard stick as support under the center of the cover. Once the cover was reinstalled and aligned I removed the yard stick.

Sagging bumper covers can be addressed with Door And Window spray foam.
This spay foam does not expand as much as your usual gap and crack foam..

Worked on the car some more tonight and finally mounted the front bumper after some unexpected trimming for the heat exchanger.

One thing I am not happy with is the gap between my fender and my cowl basically the entire hood gap I think it's too wide! But I have the doors ligned up the best I can get ( shits not going to be perfect ) and that gap is kinda just what it is...

I guess I'm going to have to just live with it.


Someone post some fox hood gap pic's with an aftermarket hood please.


I am happy with how the fender and door lines up the moldings should line up fine

This is the gap I am not happy with ( note the hood is just sitting on and centered to get an idea of the gap it is just wider then what I would like but going to have to live with it.
