cobra rear bumper questio
 


Hello,</P>


I've been having a disagreement with a buddy at work about rear buper embossing on early model SVT Cobras...</P>


Basically, a guy pulled in our store with a '95 SVT Cobra. At least, he said it was a Cobra, and I believed him. But the rear bumper simply had "Mustang" embossed into it. My buddy claims it should say "Cobra".</P>


I've been looking at as many pics on the web as I could find, but the aren't that many that show the rear bumper. I know I've seen Cobra rear bumpers as well, but when did they go into production?</P>


Thanks,</P>

It should say cobra....and have cobra emblems in the grill and on the fenders....and have a ballsy motor.

Hmmm...It had a Cobra badge on the steering wheel. It had snake emblems on the front fenders. It an SVT badge on the left rear of the trunk. It had the front bumper with integrated fog lights. It had a black leather shift boot. But it did not say Cobra on the rear bumper.</P>


Any other thoughts?</P>

yeah, my thoughts are its a GT that the guy put a front bumper on and bought the badges. I knew a guy who did all that with his 95.

Man. Why wouldn't the guy go the extra mile and buy the rear bumpre as well? Seems to have put enough money in it now making people think its' a Cobra.</P>

You are all incorrect! Real 94-95 cobras DO NOT say Cobra on the rear bumper they merely say Mustang like you described. These cobras are more rare being that they are 5 litre cobras and not 4.6 ones. Also 94-95 cobras do not have the cool hood with the hood scoops. These cobras do come with the cool wing on the decklid though. There is no third break light on the trunklid also. Sorry I just wanted to clear things up. I have a 94 cobra and I love it, and yes it only says Mustang on the rear bumper but it doesnt bother me I know I have a somewhat rare cobra<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0">

I agree with 94cobrahoe! My '97 cobra does have anembossed rearend but I don't believe the '95 cobra does. BTW, he would be foolish to spend nearly a grand on new airbags and save a few hundred on a rear bumper. I think he's legit.</P>

Im not lieing you can ask any 94-95 cobra owners, all of them came as I just described. If you see a 94 or 95 cobra with a cobra rear bumper it is only because they updated it to the newer 96-98 bumper. I plan on doing it to...<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0">
