I need to pick up a rear bumper for my 99 Mystique and I have a quick question. What year range can I pull a rear bumper off of a wrecked Mystique or Contour and fit my 99?
Thanks.

Yeap, all rear bumpers are interchangeable, though not all look the same. Just go and find what you like.
98.5 SVT
91 Escort GT (almost sold)
96 ATX Zetec (i brake to watch you swerve)
FS: SVT rear sway bar
WTB: Very cheap beater

grab a 98-00 SVT bumper, doesn't matter what colour, or even light damages and scratches. If you're a DIY kinda guy then paint gun with bondo is your friend. Otherwise a body shop that does the whole thing for $200 or less is your friend, $100 or less and you owe that man some sexual favours.

Ok cool. I wouldn't mind doing an SVT kinda thing to it, maybe swap the front grille out for a contour grille. But I don't want to drop a ton of money into it. Its just going to be a beater so the Mustang can be a garage queen. But if I did throw some money at it, I would look to make it look like this Contour One hot CSVT The only reason I need a rear bumper is that some guy hit my sister inlaw awhile back with his trailer hitch and ripped a huge freakin chunk out of the rear bumper. It just looks alittle ghetto

SVT rear bumper without skirts or front is ghetto.

or you can grab a bumper from the yard sand it and paint it. Should be cheaper, man I'd break that guy in half, some people have no respect for other people's property.

junk yards are loaded with contours and mystiques, take the rear bumper and rattle can it yourself IF you take your time. There are some painting tips in Aesthetics, just couldn't find the thread. If not, try your best, car-part.com has lots of em, just enter your postal code and you're in business.
