the cobra's new look

[noturday]

well its not quite done yet, but it was close enough to do a mock up of everything and take a decent picture of it

before:


after:


i have to re-do the clear coat on the main shell, and do a little touch up on the front bumper, but overall, its pretty much done. if i can find my stripes sticker sheet i might put the same stripes back on it, but i cant seem to find it...hmmm

Frickin' clean looking dude. The gunmetal works well on that car.

[Tmaxxn3]

beautiful
thats all i have to say.

[greekone]

It came out really nice and I love the paint.

[noturday]

thanks guys, i appreciate it, i'm hoping to get the paint all fixed up some time tmrw or something, it should turn out even better afterwards, and i'll get more pics then

[SkysTheLimit]

It looks great! The color change is very welcome in my books. Such a mean car now

[stang_racer]

**** i like that gun metal color alot!!!!! looks great and clean!!!! but for the stripes with you have black i think black would look better than white against the gun metal

[Scionbeave]

NICE!!! I Love It!!! i think that if you put scion bk rims on it that it would look even better.

[Mooshu_Beef]

Usually it is hard to get the flake appearance to show let alone on camera. VERY NICE job there

[noturday]

thanks guys, im hoping to finish it tmrw and have a lot more pics of it, and some from the rear and stuff.

@ stang_racer - the stripes are silver and would probably look pretty sick against the grey

@ scionbeave - the only scion bk rims i have are on my 09 camaro and they arent coming off of that for this car.

It looks nice.
But there is like to much flakes,its kinda to sparly. It still looks really nice.

[noturday]

its the same exact paint that i had on the f150 and nobody said anything about it being sparkly haha i think it looks fine, the flakes arent any bigger than any of the other metallic cars i've painted

[snowboi1289]

It looks nice,ofcourse,but I'm not a real big fan of sparkly cars.I like glossy colors and candy paint alot.

[F-100CuStOmCaB]

I don't see it being to sparkly all I see is a very well painted and very cool looking SVT COBRA!! NICE JOB Can't wait to see the whole thing, color looks good on it.

[BlackSky909]

Sexxy! Cobra, my all time favorite.

[noturday]

i got this color at walmart in the automotive section before they decided to stop selling automotive paint in spray cans, but you can still get it at autozone, orielly, advance, or any other auto parts store.
i saw 4 different shades of dark metallic grey at auto zone when i went to get more primer for this car. $5 for a small can of paint tho, i figured i had enough left in this can at home haha.

car looks great, all it needs is some cobra wheels

[Jalengrayson]

you have always had incredible paint skills!!!

nice

[noturday]

thanks guys, ironically you say i have incredible paint skills and this car is giving me hell. it did the same thing it had done before with the paint, but this time its a little worse. i think i can fix it a different way though, i guess we'll find out soon enough right? haha
i just have to let the new clear coat cure again then i'll try fixing it tmrw

if i could find some cobra wheels i would put them on here, but these will have to do for now haha
