Looks real nice, good job. I think that you should of left the emblem alone though.

i was thinking of masking off the letters and the cobra and painting the rest black. i kinda like the way it just says "cobra"

Intake looks nice. I would have left the plaque alone though.

wow another one. you can get a new one from mps right, cuz if this is gonna be the general concencus ill buy a new one. I am still a little undecided on it .

 

[RacEoHolic330]

will that powdercoating be able to take the heat? I'd be afraid of it blistering

 

[payupsucka]

yup did my valve covers last year and no prob! i work at a place where we make recessed lights so alot of the powder coat we use goes on big ass lights that throw of tons of heat. iam thinking of doing the tail pipes the same color, what do you guys think ?

 

[RacEoHolic330]

go with either chrome of stainless tailpipes. I think having powdercoated tailpipes would look funny.

 

[payupsucka]

yeah i have chrome but they rusted up from me having the car in the weather all last winter. the parts that you see are ok but up underneath they look like crap. just trying to fix it short of buying new ones ya know?

Oh okay.. i gotcha. I was gonna say if you just powdercoat the parts that aren't visable and leave the visable parts chrome, that would be real sweet. Maybe you could do the mufflers too.

 

[payupsucka]

now thats and idea why didnt i think of that !

 

[vristang]

I agree that the plaque looks nice in this simpler state. It could use some accents though, maybe some black highlights on the cobra or color in and/or accent the lettering.

I think it looks great, and even better it will last.

nice intake.

I don't like the coating over the emblem.

I think that the emblem is the best part of the Cobra intake.

looks cool - i like the cobra plaque though, i'd just get another one and stick it on top lol all it is is adhesive i think -

I agree

I think you should do with the plaque what YOU think looks good and not worry what we think. As you can see from my avatar, I think customizing the manifold face plate is a GOOD idea.

yup did it at work i also did my accesory brackets and my valve covers. i did the v covers the same color and the brackets that color and flat black .doing my sway bar tommorow and my spindles next week. having a sandblaster at home and powdercoating at work rocks.

ps any one in the so eastern ma ri area gimme a holler if you want me to do your stuff
