So, some things changed during the week and it opened up some time. I had been promising [MENTION=11036]greenscobie86[/MENTION] I would visit his neck of the woods for a while now. So Sat morning I left my house(in PA) in the rain and drove up to his humble abode in NY:eek:ccasion14:. We spent the day bsing while we cleaned and buffed my car. Car is shinier now for sure and there are no longer swirl marks in the paint! Booya! The car looks 100X better! The roof looks friggin sick being black now!!!!
We also took off my SS bumper inserts and just added some cobra vinyls, vinyled the quarter markers, and the roof. I will be getting some 3rd brake light tint and some other stuff soon to finish it off. I also spent sunday cleaning my interior. I still have to do the windows 1 more time as it got too hot to really clean them.

I will get better pics later on this week. These are all off my phone.

A huge thank you goes out to Scobie!!!!:notworthy: Im glad I got to see you again man and hangout! Thank you for helping me with this stuff! Glad you got to drive a cobra again lol.

The pics suck and dont do it justice.

-a sidenote - If i had driven all highway afterwards(and not hit every light on part of the way home); instead of around town on Sunday(back at home). And shifted at 2k not 2.5. And not have done a few pulls for my friend.
Doing 70mph, I could get about 400 miles out of my tank. Thank you my new tune! Fuel eco has jumped. :headbang:

I am inspired to clean my car top to bottom now! Probably going to do some work today and tomorrow, and friday/Sat. Shifty your exterior is so aggressive those 03's are holding beauty back IMO, I am in the same place with my stock Alloys as well lol.

Yea, I dont like to post pictures. Half the time they dont catch the color flop. I can show it with some pics I have. But its hard. Just always see the flaws so I dont always think its good looking.

But thank you all for the compliments.
[MENTION=16648]TanTop94[/MENTION] - the car will not be at the AM show. But surely find me! [MENTION=8031]JerZeyStangz[/MENTION] - Glad I could get you to wash your car! lol.
I agree I do need a nice set of gloss 18s to DD on the car. I have those 03s on there to hold the tires on the front and make sure they can fit. If the plastidip turned out right they would look better. If they were gloss would look better too. So i do agree for the most part

I was looking into that too.
There is also a blue carbon fiber vinyl that looks real close to the same color as the car. as well as black CF

Why is this the first time I've seen it??!!?!?!?!

Beautiful! Love the front and the roof! The spoiler isnt bad! But I think spoiler-less would look sweet with a bit more lower!

Thank you all!!! I generally never post it. Only have a few times in all the years ive been on here. I guess I know its flaws so choose not to show it.
[MENTION=17635]Orange 94[/MENTION] - Wingless looks pretty cool on it, as you know. But Ill stick with my wing. for now. Also I cannot lower it anymore as much as i would want to. Will hinder the handling of it. Plus the tires wont fit up front if i go much lower. They arent small ;)
[MENTION=10188]white95[/MENTION] - yea I just dont talk about it or post pics. I unno. Im weird about it since its nothing too crazy. But yes, it was painted with a very large metallic flake that is hard to match. Otherwise it is Copperhead/Lotus orange. Nothing OEM about it lol.

And thank you [MENTION=17070]Tony[/MENTION]! LOL Love the speedwanking smiley. But the next step. Will be the pillars.. Along with another spot or 2 to really bring it all together.
