Well somebody told me that i should get before and after pics of my paint job... Well the car finally goes in to the paint shop at the end of the week so i decided to wash it up real good and get some before pics.
I got a little camera happy and just started snapping everything.

The wheels are 17x10.5 in the rear and 17x 9 in the front.

The controller in front of my Shifter is part of my PMS unit.

The stereo is just 3 eclipse 10's hooked up to a clarion 1000 watt amp.. I believe the box is an mtx box... (those looking for a sub box to fit and still leave room this one is perfect) Though the bass may be missing SPL it makes up for it by being so freaking clean and tight.

Oh and before anybody says anything i forgot to clean around the seal of my trunk.. I cleaned it right after i saw the pics... That and the only reason i went with the diamond plate floormatts was because i had problems with my floormatts rolling up and deterating.. (even the higher dollar ones)

BTW... I finally got dyno time for AFM Wednesday... I really think she has 500 hp in her...

Looks great dude. How much for the paint job?

Also, what are the actual sizes on your front and rear tires?
I'm curious cause I'm getting those same rims(machine face) with 255's and 275's.

Click to expand...

If you look closely there are sunspots and crows feet coming through, There is also a small crack in the hood and little spider cracks in both the bumpers... Its being repainted black with a new cobra R hood. (Pretty much to take care of all the little imperfections..

but im getting a hell of deal on some custome paint work.. Putting lightning on it and its goign to scatter all over the hood and down into the front of the doors..

mustangGT03281 : yeah i figured there would be people who didnt like the diamond platted floor matts... Again i only did it in frustration... But im looking to get some really good floormatts in the near future to replace them.

Thanks for all the compliments guys... After the paint job i should have just a little under 20k in it... I know thats a lot but at this point i wouldn't do an even trade for a new cobra.. (meaning my car is worth a lot more to me) ... well actually i would trade, then sell the cobra and buy another 94-95 and modd the crap out of it..

Pictures don't always show imperfections. I think for any 94-95 should have a new paint job, just because of the age.

it has 255/40/17's on the front and 315/35/17's on the back.. The paint job was quoted for 2400 and the custome work is being done for 300 extra.. The guy is sorta new in town and i think he's doing it to get his name out locally... He said himself that he is doing this WAY UNDER what he normally charges..

Nice. That seems like a fair price especially with the custom only $300.

How do you get the 315's to fit? I know you have to flip something( ) but how do you go about doing that?
