well, this morning on the way home from my friends house i was in a small accident with me and a tree. the front bumper is cracked in a few places and has deep scratches in the paint. now that i have to get a new bumper where can i get one thats not much money. i dont have much to spend so if you know any good places to try id appreciate it very much. what a way to start off the year huh....  |

i almost got in one this moring, when i was leaving a friends house, the roads were really wet and when i was leaving the stop sign i fishtailed. This was giving the car almost no throttle but at least there was almost no traffic and i recovered it well.

oh, and though i have never been drinking and driving a close friend of mine nearly lost his life from a drunk driver running a red light and hittin his car. that kinda gave me a good lesson on what kinds of things can and probly will happen if you do drink and drive. so, noi dont think i will ever do that. |

im gonna have to say check around the diff mustang forums for sale sections, and jsut hope you can find a used one for cheap, unless of course you want an aftermarket one  btw moving to wanted to buy/trade, you'll prolly get a better response there.

Might as well get a used 03' cobra front end. That way it will be better than before.

if its not drivable you will know asap.... if its warped you should notice right off with a horrid ride... if its not that bad you will be ok for a bit, or if it doesnt loose air. I have 4 15 inch rims from my 01 that have 20 miles on em for dirt cheap ify ou need cheap rims.
