[QUOTE="JeremyAlan, post: 15378808, member: 48798"] So, this will probably go over like a wet fart in church, but I'm curious to the varying opinions. What do you guys think of the Roush bumper for my Cobra instead of the factory OEM bumper? England has not been good to my OEM Cobra bumper. During shipping the bumper got cracked at the very bottom center portion. So, it's been repaired and the British painter didn't do a great job. Then, the other day, while trying to get the car on a lift, the wood transition piece broke and ripped the bumper off its mount. So, I will be looking for a new bumper in a year or two. Also, I think it's more aggressive and I like how it's closer to the road surface, because I was to run a splitter and full under tray on the car. I will have to extend the side skirts to match as well.
