I got tired of the cobra's, so I traded them for some 17x8/17x10.5 bullitt's the other day and decided to paint them Matte black. Let me know what you think

I would paint them gold or bronze like the 40th anny cars. Just to be different.

I'm liking the wheels. Of course your cobra's looked good too.


But....the wheels would look better with some bigger brakes behind them.

Looks good man! Will look even better when you find those Cobra sideskirts!

Btw, I totally forgot about getting you that pic. Sorry man, I'll get it tomorrow afternoon before I go to work.

Thanks guys

I really want some 03/04 side skirts, but I probably wont ever buy them. Once I buy them, get them shipped, and have them painted, I could have bought something to make the car go faster. And that's mainly what I'm worried about.

I got my cobra sides shipped and painted all together for right around 500. Not the steal of a century but I think its a good price all things considered. That is a decent chunk though and you could get cobra brakes for that price so its all where you want to go with it.

Looks good! The Cobra side skirts would look great on your car.
