GT vs LX front bumper, high speed.

[Mach1]

What is the consensus on areo drag/front downforce on a gt vs lx front bumper cover? Don't the really fast guys pick up mph in the 1/4 going to a GT front bumper?

[naynay]

no the really fast guys are using snowplows now.

i'd just let vader TT go at it with a holesaw if its a street car!

for a street car i'd think the 4eye front end would be best.

are you going roundy round or 1/4 mile?

road racing car, gotta use OE bumper.
Here are my options.

1979-1993 Mustang L, GL, GLX, LX, GT, Turbo GT, Cobra (not Cobra R)

Is this for a chumpcar? The more you can fill-in, the better. Hopefully your cooling system is in good shape. I'd also brace it with some aluminum or something on the backside, they get distorted at high speeds.

CMC if I had to guess. Chump doesnt care if you have a bumper, but you better have the correct numbers on the door.

I don't think it matters much if any unless you can modify it with a splitter. That being said the GT has holes for brake cooling already right where you want them.

Yeah, I am leaning to the GT, it appears to generate more down force too.
