Boy howdy! this is the thread that won't quit. To answer the last question on shipping costs, I ordered a rear GT bumper from Cascos for $200 and the truck freight shipping to Oregon was $165. Still cheaper than the quote for a bumper and paint job quote.

It all comes down to its just what the person likes personally. I myself thought about putting on a GT bumper cause I was worried that the driverside cut out would not look good plus I was getting the bumper repaired for about $500.00 so I thought I'd look into it, but after I was told I needed the side panels and front chin spoiler just for it to look right I thought "nah my cars not a GT" screw it and I just had trust in the shop. Im not one for putting on GT parts but if thats what gets your jolly's off then do you. I personally would go with a body kit made for the V6 if I was going to add any cosmetic but Im more the sleeper type. I like it to look just like it came off the lot for those rare times when you pull up to a Import or another Stang or what ever and hes all decked out under the hood and cosmeticly, he just thinks Im some guy who bought a V6 and thinks its fast normally the way it came off the lot ( that gets my jollys off) Smoke em, leave em thinkin " was that stock" "No I raced one before, that can't be stock" lol thats what does me. Plus it makes another mans balls feel a lot smaller when we lose ( its just a fact) dont care how old you are. So when I beat the pants off a dude with his girl in the passenger of his all fast and ferious fixed up civic or stang what ever, his balls really feel small cause my car don't look as cool or as fast as his does yet it blow his %$&#ing doors off. lol. Plus when your cars really decked out like that it looks faster than it is most of the time. I would at least have a SC or TC before I even thought about making my car look like it puts down 260-280 at the wheel but usually the case is they have bolt ons like us and just want to look cool.

But hey like I said in the begining thats there style. It's all about being yourself anyway & personalizing your ride.


sorry if i am misunderstanding your post.. but are you implying that if your car looks nice it should automatically be able to back that up with a designated amount of hp??!

im not criticizing, just asking.... im just trying to understand where you are coming from
