Sweet ass black! :headbang:

I like the look with no hood-liner, I just pulled mine and cleaned everything up. Going to see if I can clean my original liner up and see how it turns out.

The hood is a steel Goodmark 2" cowl, fits really well:

The only reason it's on the car is to clear the blower/inlet.

Took the Cobra out the past 2 days its been nice out.

How the hell do some of you guys DD your cars with no tint? All my DD are tinted so I felt like I was driving in a magnifying glass. Im getting tempted to tint my windows it would probably help keep the orig interior in good shape from sun damage.

Oh, and I am paranoid driving it.....can't even begin to explain the bad drivers you see out there. I was making a Uturn at a green light on a main road and some dumbass soccer mom was making a right onto the main road and almost hit into me she pulled out without letting me go by first. I exchanged a few choice words with her at the red light and she pretended not to hear. :cussing: :drive:

Last week I ordered a new set of Nitto NT555, and got them in the mail today! :headbang:

I'm dropping my rims off at the shop to have them powder coated tomorrow. Should get them back in 7-14 days, at which point I will have the new tires installed. I have included a picture of the new Tires, and a couple of pics of the rims prior to powder coating. You can see the rims are peeling and flaking (reason for getting powder coated)

I have also ordered the Eibach Pro-Kit-Plus suspension package and BBK caster/camber plates, should get them within the next couple of days.
Can you tell I'm getting excited? :wank:

I'm going to try to keep it factory color. ( I read somewhere that "Bengal Silver w/ Clear" is a factory match)

I did a little research and was quoted everything from $80 for the entire set, up to $135 per rim.
The $80 for the set was through the Florence prison. Problem is they did not guarantee colors to match, and it would be 30-45 day turn around.
The shop I decided to go with is going to charge me $100 per rim or $400 for the set. Chose this shop because the guy on the phone actually knew what he was doing. They were the only place who took the time to verify what exactly they would be working on. When I told him 93 Cobra rims... he actually looked them up. He seemed to understand the importance of a good job. He seemed to understand why it was important too. Everyone else just quoted rims.
