What can you do? Makes me wish I had bought more genuine parts at the dealership before they were discontinued.I've done similar things like you buying those hoses. You don't want to know what I spent on NOS door and window switches
Found someone who makes solid gaskets for throttle bodies. He has them in different sizes also.

Just looked it up, they are in Kirkland which is about an hour and a half away, without traffic.Aren’t your wheels original cobras that are painted black?? There are wheel companies that will recondition wheels. One down here in abq, Alloy Wheel Repair. They are a franchise. Look to see if there is one in the Seattle area. They will make them look brand new. I believe they have a warranty, we use them all the time at the body shop.
It doesn’t feel too rigid. It feels about as rigid as the gasket I took off.The description is horrible. Do you use sealant on it? If so, what kind?
Depending on how rigid it is, I might try to use that super thin read stuff that I've used on PD blower gaskets (the name escapes me).
Anaerobic sealer .... or just use red locktight.The description is horrible. Do you use sealant on it? If so, what kind?

No need to replace your originals, just have them redone. Don’t spend the $1500 on those other ones.Just looked it up, they are in Kirkland which is about an hour and a half away, without traffic.
Yeah they are originals. When I got the intake powder coated, they said they usually charge $150ish per wheel, which includes blasting.
Oh I know haha. I was just pointing out how hard they are to find. I wouldn’t buy those... well if I lots of money.No need to replace your originals, just have them redone. Don’t spend the $1500 on those other ones.
I figured. I would restore those to stock though. That would totally change the look of your car. Wish I had a Cobra to play with.Oh I know haha. I was just pointing out how hard they are to find. I wouldn’t buy those... well if I lots of money.
Jeff’s car got meI used to hate them actually. But in the past recent years I came around and really started to like them. Don’t know what made me change. I do know that they are really hard to find and that I really want mine to be in their original color.
