Ok, so we just had a record snowstorm in Tulsa and I hit a patch of ice going about 10 mph and ran into a snow enbankment. My front bumper is cracked down the middle on the lower part. Is there a way a body shop can fix my bumper, or do I need a new one? If I need a new one, where should I pick one up at and what can i expect to pay to get this fixed and painted. Any help guys?

Time to upgrade to a 00R spliter, there's plenty of those around, check out www.cervinis.com.

You should also try really hard to get yourself a winter beater for just such occasions. This is why my other car is a '95 Jeep!

Seriously sucks that I (we) can't get a replacment front bumper that is the stock look. So I guess the only good options are the 00R bumper or the 03-04 bumper. 00R bumper is cool looking but I amagine they take a beating on the streets, 03-04 bumper is nice but I don't want my mustang to look like the terminator. Major suckage!

Yea I bought one from cervinis a few months ago and after test fitting and finding that it wouldn't even make it up my driveway I had to return it. Looked mean as hell though. I just wish the removable one wasn't so damn expensive.
