Took some recent pics of my cobra, it has a full upr setup on strange coil overs. Most people hate the rear setup because you can't lower the car enough. Well I'm on school for engineering and thought I should be able to fix this so I did. Picked up some steel for Home Depot and made a 3" drop bracket for 27 bucks. Also I took some pics with and without spoiler. The turbo kit will be here next week and ill update you guys with a build thread.

Looking good man. Details on the wheels/tire sizes and what you did to make the rears sit flush?

God damn that car is sexy with those baller wheels. That was my original answer when I slammed my rear coilovers and was like wtf ? I have the exact same setup as you planning on making some drop brackets as well my car needs more low in the rear . I gotta get a shorter pinion snubber as well

And he's got export Mirrors :) ROTM next month is coming ur way the stance and just clean look , I'm a sucker for black sn95's

awesome job, car looks great. I have adjustable lowers in the rear to drop the car but I'm interested to see what these drop brackets look like. Also like to know wheel and tire combo in the rear and if you have tire rubbing.

Holy balls man, the car looks great! And I always love some HRE action.

Nice work with the drop brackets for the coil overs, I'd also be interested in seeing a pic of them just out of curiosity. Keep up the great work!

To answer your question it's hre 540 18x10.5 the offset is for a porsche i think because I had to use foxbody axles to pull my wheels in enough to lower it. The tires are nitto 305/40:18
