Default Bumper Insert Pics (w/ a twist)

I know this isn't www.corral.net so I'm sure you guys aren't going to get fired up about these pics. This is my internet home so I'm posting them here.

I just "installed" a set of stainless steel bumper inserts on my '03 Cobra. I purchased them from www.ssinserts.com. These are high quality pieces. You can get them for a Camaro here or for a Trans Am here. Whew, there...now it's LS1 related.

Anyway, check out the pics and let me know what you think. Get used to the look of them. There will be a lot of LS1's seeing that viewpoint! Just kidding :p

I didn't clean the car or polish the inserts yet. I was a little to anxious to put them on and snap a few pics.

Even though it's a Cobra, it's still American

They do some quality stuff, my "SS's" are from them....and it looks great.....BUT, damn!....do you think Ford could have made the lettering a little bigger?.....I can't read what it says... :p

The lettering is pretty big. I guess Ford wanted the world to know that it's a Cobra. I think they look really good though.

I think they look great. Especially on the Cobra. And if I paid that much damn money, I'd want a big bold COBRA back there too.

I paid $30 for inserts for the Z28 I had and they were vinyl (small) stickers. I think it's a fair price. They were $79 shipped.

Very Nice! They look great but personally I don't like the rear end of mustangs too much.

That's understandable. I'm not trying to sway people to the dark side...just posting appearance mod pics.

Looks really good

I think black cars with all chrome emblems look the best! Before I painted my car it was black with Chrome SS's, bowtie, lettering in back, nose badge,hood scoop pretty much everything lol.

Now I have my car a different color but with all the same chrome emblems.
