HELP! Will a gt350 front bumper from anderson push me over the top?

[Ecoboosted]

I say no. The GT350 bumper by itself looks out of place without the GT350 fenders.

The steeda fascia is really growing on me, and roush if you paint the winglets. I think the steeda would fit your car the best honestly

Do it I had a 04 Cobra bumper on my 04 Mach 1 looked great! As long as you keep GT350 logos off the car I see nothing wrong with it. The Roush guys don't get hazed but anyone wanting to put the GT350 on do.

Car looks great already but if you like the look do it. For me though adding the look from another, particularly higher trim level is in poor taste. A spoiler or wheels perhaps I would consider and have done but I personally draw the line at bumpers, hoods and fenders.

Car looks great by the way.

I love the GT with a grill delete and only fangs! I was going to the same thing to mine with the GT350 bumper but I feel that open GT grill is a uniquely GT thing since we only have those fangs.

Do it but save your original parts

you can always go back my friend .. Have someone photoshop it to your car and then get it done. If YOU like screw everyone else. No one pays your bills but you. I stopped trying to please people in the 5th grade .

Bottom line its your car . It looks great now and will look even better in 5 to 10 years. Just check out all the modifies stangs and vettes and other cars at Barrett Jackson.

I think the gt350 bumper would be cool. There are a lot of new edge mustang gt's out there that had the '03 cobra front on it. I'd say as you're not trying to pass it off as an actual gt350, then you're all good. Plus at the end of the day it's your car and you can do what you want with it.

my 2 pennys of opinion... gt350 clones are ugly AF in person. they look so out of place. it doesn't look nearly as good as a gt with a gt500 front end from s195... it just flat out looks strange because the width isn't there...

that's my opinion though... i debated flairing out oem with splitter and grilles vs roush vs steeda... ended up roush...but it took me over a year to make the decision lol.

I say go for it because you know deep down you want it.
You are never going to please everyone, and that should not matter to you.

Myself, I am looking into getting rims few people in my life think look good. In fact, I may even be so bold as to ask for them for my birthday from the one who hates them the most

As others have said, no problem in my opinion to take some styling from the GT350. As long as the badges aren't used.

I think the Steeda would look better with your current set up, it is subtle enough to stand out and add to the current lines and symmetry. Like others have stated the GT350 would look better with the fenders/hood as all those parts compliment each other. Just having the bumper sans fenders and hood may look a little out of place at certain angles. And do what you want and what makes you happy! I know we all want to fit in and have others like our work and mods, but at the end of the day if look at your car and it makes you happy that's all that matters.

Do what you please - your car! I do agree with [MENTION=12175]Khyber[/MENTION] though - some of these replica bumpers look out of place. If you can find an example of one locally to see before the purchase, I would do it.

Will it make you a poser? I said no, but I still wouldn't do it. I think the GT350 front end looks good - yes it is slightly different than the GT front end, but not THAT different that tons of people will notice. And it may be more work than you think to make it fit. If you're a fabricator I think it would be cool to see what you have to do to make it fit. Otherwise I expect it will be costly and not worth it. Just save the $$ and use it for the next car.

But it's your car you should do what you want.

Would you consider yourself a poser? That's up to you. Would some other people consider you a poser? Probably. If it's important to you that other people don't think you're a poser, don't do it. If you could care less what others think, why are we having this particular discussion?
