welcome nice lookin ride and kickass brakes!

thanks, those brakes are amazing. had the rear ones too, but they only work for with the solid axle so i had to ditch them when i went with the IRS

did i spy a recaro cobra r seat? nice car man very nice :thumb:

lol, kinda. its not the "offical" cobra R seat because it doesnt have the cobra R logo on there, but its the same one that was used for the 00 Cobra R, just w/o the "Cobra R" part. holds you in perfectly too.

i had actually been looking for something similar to those when i first bought my car and saw the 99 cobra taillights, but never knew ford made them until earlier this year. looked around everywhere for them, they were discontinued by ford for about 2 yrs by the time i started looking, so i searched around in canada (internet) and europe and australia for them, but didnt find anything. then karkraft decided to list their last pair on ebay, and as soon as i saw them i snatched them up. i claim that i got my hands on the last new pair in the US, but i cant really say thats a fact. (altho to this day i havent been able to find them anywhere)

ok someone help me out here im looking at those tallights and they look the same as th ones on my cobra, am i missing something?

your 96 cobra? look closely, these have the amber turn signal bar on the bottom, similar to what the 99/01 cobra's had. these were never sold on any mustangs that were sold in the US, just the ones that were exported to Europe, Japan, and Australia, which is why they are known as "Export Taillights". and dont look at the 1st set of pictures, look at the most recent ones on the bottom. ive only had these lights on since jan or feb of this year, and the pics before that are all older
