What the car really needs is a near rear gear set. It currently has 3.27, I'm thinking a 3.73 would be ideal and keep me in the poweband quicker with the centri blower. 3-5k rpms there is little to no feel of boost. Up top she pulls like a freight train. 2nd gear frim 4500 to redline is a thrill ride.

If staying centri than yeah that will probably be your best bet. If turbo than keep the stock 3.27

Who makes the best fitting aftermarket 94-98 cobra front bumper? I'm having a heck of a time finding an OEM unit. I want to get this paint work done and parts installed and I'm tired of waiting for one to pop up...

I never hear anyone complain about the Blue Oval Industries Cobra Bumper. They package better than most also.

I purchased a BOI cobra front bumper cover on Friday. Still awaiting a sales confirmation on it, but I'm hoping I can receive it this week and drop the car off to get some paint work done later this week or next week. I'm having the cervinis 00 r hood, the export side mirrors, the kaenen s281 spoiler and the cobra front bumper all painted and installed. I have the OEM taillight bezels in BTO that I might have resprayed and I'm considering re-installing those.

I'm still at a loss for what to do with the true forged chicane wheels. I want to have them redone. I just don't know what direction to go with them, either black them out and possibly try to get some type of orange metallic flake in the centers with a satin black color and gloss black lips or keep the polished lips and go with a silver brushed center.

That's quite a pair of Mustangs... The polished wheels do make the orange pop.

Should I put back on the body colored tail light bezels or leave the black? If i do the wheels in silver I think they should be body color if I do black wheels they should stay black... Im leaning towards silver or possibly putting the polished ccw sp500's that are now on the cobra on the vert and doing the chicanes on the cobra.
