Can't decide..Thought I was set on the 99/01 Cobra Front Bumper but Looking on other forums I found a Stage 3 Bumper.


My Question is 2 fold.

#1 Which do you prefer Roush Stage 3 or Cobra Front Facia?

#2 Would The Roush front look funky with GT stock Side scoops?


Pics for you visual Peeps!

Get the Roush front, and the sides if you can. They look SSSWWWEEEEEETTTTTT, but then I am a little biased.....

Haha I KNEW how you'd vote. I don't want a Roush replica, and I like my exhaust set up, would it look weird with stock side skirts and the S3 bumper?

Nope..don't like that plate part they have on them.. thats why I want to get rid of the GT bumper, reason why I wont do S1 or S2 and same with the Mach.

YOU ROCK! That looks sexy, Liking the wing, but with a Saleen hood I have, Cant decide on the wing. Stock Side skirts right? It looks like it flows.

I did have stock Side Skirts..I think it would look sweet with the Roush Bumper and Wing with your Saleen Hood...Maybe look at the S281 Saleen Wing the 1 piece..That would look sweet also..

If you want it to flow smoothly, you have to go with Roush sides too. Otherwise the bottom edge of the front and the sides don't line up if you look close at it.You can always put side exhaust on it. They sound good when you get on it a little. And they look really good if you drop the car an inch or so.

And the front on the pic is different than mine is. The bottom edge doesn't stick out so far.

What did you sell? I'm confused. The R bumper doesn't look so bad, but its def an extreme look to it. Smooth car though.

Thanks, I need to look into a wing now LOL..but they are pricy..

In the first pic he posted or the second? the second is the R front not the S3 front.

I just don't want side exhaust, what does roush do on teh 360 R's because those don't have side exhaust.

My humble opinion is, "If it ain't a Cobra, don't put Cobra stuff on it."

I would go with the Cobra.. of course that is mainly because I love the look of the Cobras and that would be about the closest I would get to owning a Cobra... But that is just me..

I would go with the Roush Stage 3 Front. The Saleen Side Skirts. A Saleen 1 Piece Wing OR the Roush Stage 3 Wing. And keep the hood and leave the stock rear bumper ... Or look at doing the Saleen E Rear Bumper with the center exhaust ??
