i am going to get new brakes come spring time, since mine need replacing all around anyways. i am going to upgrade to cobra/bullitt brakes. except i cant decide which ones to get. im not the biggest fan of the runnign pony on the bullitts. putting the cobra brakes on would be showing that it is an upgrade. i would liek to have the name on there, but in no way is it advertising mine as one. obviously the gt emblem is about a foot away from teh brakes. would it be poser like to put the front red calipers on that say cobra on my gt? when it is showing an upgrade?

What's wrong with showing you're brakes are upgraded? Personally I think it's smart and it's not like you're making your car a "Fauxbra" by putting snakes on the fenders and front grill.

Get teh 10th anniversary ones... I did and love them. The extra $70ish was worth it to me over the mach 1's to have the red cobra front calipers...

As lng as you dont try to make ppl think its a Cobra, then sure its fine. I see a red V6 all the time around here with Cobra emblems. Man that pisses me off.

someone had the cobra brakes with the calipers powdercoated with a color that looked like polished aluminum and black letters and it looked great.
