I’m almost always against extra badges and that less is usually more, but this is one where I’m on the fence. They look good as part of the Super Snake package and I think they work on those cars.
This isn’t like Cobra badges on a GT, but an add on that works on ‘some’ builds.
I’m going to temporarily tape the black ones I have on my car to decide.
I’ll post those pics here but it’ll be til next weekend at earliest.

There are things you can buy, ...............& things you can't, some don't cost much to do yourself !!

Oh man! That is so disgusting! Lol

Yeah, hideous for sure. I actually felt badly after posting that... I was just messing around- the badges don't come anywhere close to these sharks teeth, but I definitely vote for a "less is more" approach.

Nice touch! I ended up putting a red dot in the eye of my 03 cobra which I thought was cool. (Black car)

As with anything its a personal preference. I do a lot of car shows with my Shelby and I get lots of positive comments on the horsepower aspect of the wings. Just my 2 cents.

I have always been one to keep a special car close to stock, especially this car. Nothing wrong with making mods to individualize your Shelby, unless, in my opinion, you've gone too far. White lettering on the tires is too ricey for me. Adding hashes on the front fenders is absolutely unnecessary. But, hey, what does a graphic designer for a career know, anyway? Less is more.

I say put the wings on if you like them, if it does not work out in the end, a little bit of WD40 or Goo-Gone will release the double stick and they come right off, then sell them to another owner at a reduced price (needs new double stick).

The Super Snake style wings have become so popular with the GT500's, the Cobra snakes almost look naked without them in today's world.....<<<Not that it is good or bad, just reality.....

No, actually it looks GAY AF!

Oh NO!!!

Such politeness on the web.... Forgot to comment in addition to stating it was the 662 hp motor also 5.8 instead of 5.4. Two ways to differentiate the 13-14 from earlier models for those less educated when looking at the car.
