People bitching about somebody putting cobra stuff on a GT is getting old. I fully plan on putting cobra mirrors, sideskirts, and a shaved rear bumper on mine. Am I doing it because I'm trying to make my car look like a cobra? Nope. I'm doing it because it looks better than the GT stuff and I'm not going to put a Xenon body kit on my car.
They are the stock 99/01 cobra tail lights
GT owners need to stop being so hostile.... Simply put, COBRA parts were meant for the COBRA and GT for the GT, get over it. Real svt owners are sick of being asked if their cobras are real or not due to posers out there slapping on cobra aesthetics.
Anyway... a little back story on the original poster(he posts pics of his car everywhere, it gets old). I am sure you will find this interesting..

Read through, trust me lol.
So you're saying it's not ok to put little snake badges on the car but it's fine to have a bumper with a shiny billboard that screams COBRA?This here!as long as the cobra emblems are not going onto the car then whats the big deal?? the cobra parts and saleen parts look tons better than what the GT got stuck with. its like the movie Twins, Arnold or the cobra gets the good appearance genes, and Danny or the GT gets the leftovers. Except here we can change the look around and put on better "genes" without tagging it with the cobra emblems. hell i'm getting an 03/04 front to put on.. probably get the side skirts too. Come at me brah!

I don't blame Ford at all. First of all, if that was the case, he should have just traded it in for a Cobra before he dumped all that money into it.can't just blame the owner.. Ford should have styled the GT better, at least the '99-'04's. not saying all those gt's look bad, but that comes down to what the owner does to the original style of the GT.
Exactly! There's a big difference between personalizing your car and copying an upgraded model. One tends to be generally excepted while the other often invites criticism. This isn't anything new, nor is it exclusive to Ford or Mustangs. If you're going to do it, understand it comes with the territory. Get passed it. I'm adding a pillar gauges and a Mach 1 chin spoiler next year. I hope no one thinks I'm posing as a real Mach 1No point in trying to pass it as something it isn't, and quite frankly, I really like the GT front end with the grille delete and chin spoiler!
Mustang owners might know the difference but to the average joe, unless it says Cobra or has snake badges, they likely don't know the difference. I've just never been one to make my car into something it isn't.

As for your Sonic Blue GT. There is nothing you can do to a Sonic Blue GT to make it anything less than awesome. As much as I love my Torch Red, I've always wished I got the Sonic Blue. Ford really nailed it with that color. Nice car.
Haha exactly. Doesn't surprise me.This is quite true. A guy at work didn't believe me when I told him my 99 was a Cobra b/c the 99's rear bumper cover say "Mustang" instead of "Cobra".
This could get interesting.
