Decide on a bumper that you like and install it...The bumpers on a Cobra, Saleen or whatever will fit on that specific year Mustang...I wouldn't worry about brackets or what ever, you can buy those and I'm sure that even if they were required it would not be that hard to install...

FYI~Prepare yourself for poor quality on the Saleen parts...I've gotten a few body parts and none of them fit right at all..

i'm trying to find a saleen dealer to get a good quality kit but don't know where one is yet...but i think i mught go with cobra bumbers and a ram air hood or..saleen kit with a ram air hood..
my other option is a cobra-r or saleen kit with a carbon fiber cowl hood...but i like the look of a carbon fiber cowl hood on a black gt...but the-again i think the carbon fiber hood would be a little rice like...
sry if it doesn't make sense i beendrinkin a littte [Whoo Whooooo!] [Whoo Whooooo!] [Whoo Whooooo!]
