I like either one, but I think that the 03/04 looks meaner. The 99/01 almost looks stock to me.

Onre of the things I do not like about the 99/01 is the fact it curves up in the middle as opposed to the 04/04 which has a flat bottom.

It's funny, that's what I do like about it. I think the Mach needs it's chin spoiler, and that really only works with the 99/01 style. A mach chin spoiler on a 03/04 would be too low and look goofy.

Looking at the Mach 1 board, the 99/01 is the way more popular swap too. I think most people want to retain the chin spoiler.

if you wanna keep the splitter, go for the 99/01 but if you want it to look more aggressive go with the 03/04 and forget the splitter

It's funny, but I think the 01 with splitter looks way more aggressive than the 03. The other issue I see is that the 03 is lower and Leedom's car is already very low. I'd imagine he'd scrape over everything...

It pains me deeply to say this, but I think you're right.

Heard from my claims guy yesterday and he said my insurance co. is only paying for repair and paint. No new cobra bumper for me yet.
