Is there any place I could find an OEM replacement for my v6 rear bumper? I had an accident with mine

might have to just go up to the dealership unless you want to upgrade to the GT and put duals on the stang which would look badass

Do you need a new exhaust, too? 'Cause I have my stock exhaust sitting in the garage that I'm dying to get rid of. I'll take $20 for it.

Only kidding, but I think you'll probably need to go through the dealer if what you want is another V6 bumper. I'd take the opportunity and go for something else, though, unless you like that bumper.

I have a Vista Blue. It's not mint but it's in great overall condition. Let me know.

+1 on the upgrade advice.

Basically, if you're going OEM, you always get screwed.  So unless you really, really love your OEM V6 bumper, take this opportunity to upgrade your Pony.

You could probably get an entire GT appearance package (front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts) pre-painted from newtakeoff.com than you could get an OEM rear bumper purchased and painted from Ford.  Or spend a little more and get something more unique and aftermarket.

Anything breaks on my Mustang = Great excuse to spend some cash on an upgrade.

Thanks for the suggestion guys, I think that I'll get the GT bumper + FRPP dual exhaust instead of the v6 bumper . Plus, I'm going to have to re-stripe it. Is striping hard?

    Ok, so here's my list so far,

    1) GT rear Bumper - newtakeoff.com is not selling them separately, they only sell the appearance package. What happened? I thought they sold the bumper too

    2) FRPP Exhaust - $664.95

    3) Striping for bumper - going to call BSM for pricing for only the bumper vinyl.

    4) Install - How much would the exhaust install cost?

    I was quoted between $150-200 for exhaust install. I did mine myself though.

    Go to latemodelrestoration.com for your bumper...they have them prepainted and such for about $216...I could've sworn I saw them cheaper somewhere but can't remember where.

    Check out Ninosport.com also, that's where I bought mine.

    You can get the FRPP dual kit for much cheaper than that - check out CJPonyParts.com, I bought mine from there for 529.99 + shipping but that's because they had a discount fridays during the month of Feb., they probably have the same promotional stuff going on this month also.

    thats probably painted but watch out even though it seems low newtakeoff likes to charge huge shipping rates to make up for low costs just fyi
