I dislike the badges 10x more than anyone on here, hell I debadged my acura since i dont like badges. The 'supercharged' part is not just a sticker, its seriously stuck on there, and if i tried to remove it would completely screw the paint.
Like I said the trunklid is getting repainted this winter, along with the front bumper side skirts, and spoiler. It does need a good buff job, but what 10year old black car doesnt?? It looks good from 10' away, and when its not 100% sunny. Those pics were taken a couple feet away with the sun behind me, of course its gonna show all the flaws. Had I took the shots from the other side you'd never see the swirls.
Yep, he sold the KB and left everything else. So all I have to do is throw in my s-trim and tune it up (he sold with with a laptop w/tweecer too.)
The projectors are as good as gone, trust me. I havent fully decided whether to go smoked or cobra tho, as I think the smoked may look kinda strange with clear foglights.
Thanks
The hood came with it, and its a 96-98 cobra hood with a 1.5" cowl added to it. He literally cut the hood and added a bracket & fibreglassing to make it a cowl hood. So yeah, cant really buy it anywhere. He did a pretty good job, and its cool having a one of a kind hood, plus it looks pretty badass imo. 
The rears are 315/35 nitto dr's. Not bad, but the wheel is like 1/16" away from the caliper so its close. It does stick out a tiny bit more than when they were on my GT (obviously with a spacer it would), but not enough to bother me. I'll snap a pic from overtop so you can see.
It had stock leather cobra seats in the back. I had bought the rear 03's awhile ago with the intention of putting them in my GT, along with 03 fronts. Since the cobra already has Sube Sport cobra brand seats, which have more bolstering and are just as comfortable as 03 cobra seats, all i'm gonna go is get them reupholstered to match the grey/black combo of the 03 rears.
BTW thanks for all the compliments guys. Ii dont deserve most of the credit for the car, but I did buy it myself, and its gonna look/perform better than it ever has this coming spring.
As long as there's no surprises after i install the s-trim, I am aiming for 500rwhp & high 10's.
Can you post a closeup of the tips?
Im looking for some but I dont know exactly what they look like.

cool, thanks for the pics. That isnt too bad at all really. Just a tad more than mine (also with 275's on the front). I think maybe with a 265-255 in front with a spacer it might look alittle less even.
Thanks, gives me hope to swap to a cobra setup after I get sick of the 99+ setup I have now. I all but gave up on cobras...THANK YOU.

Looks amazing. Beautiful car.
I got cut off in the rain last november and spun it out into a ditch. Didnt have collision on it, so i had to fit the $2k bill to fix it. I instead sold it to a coworker for $3k, bought this already built cobra from florida, drove it home and plan on going to town on it this winter/spring.

yea i love the red car too, that was my like model GT...laser red with TTII's, but i love the new car a lot too...
Thanks, yeah i miss the laser red to be honest. It just looked so nice when it was polished up. The black is just another ballgame though, gonna take a decent amount of work to get it pristine.
