Hey all, Coming from Speedhut gauges and looking to go a little more advanced. Having a hard time deciding between PLX multi gauges or Aeroforce Interceptors. Anyone have any opinions they can share? Pros/Cons of each that they love/hate? If any of you have no idea what I'm talking about...

Hey all, Still on the search for a possible GT500 after my '03 was lost a few weeks ago in an accident. Still trying to decide between going back to an 03/04 or a GT500 though. But, let me ask ya guys something, when you were looking for your new GT500s, what was it that made you choose "IT"...

Hey all, Have brand new/never installed True Forged satin black/satin black hood vents (mesh style) for sale. Got them for my 03, and then lost the car a week later. They are in orginal packaging and all that good stuff. Also posted this in the Hood Vent Group Buy#3 post, so if anyone wants...

Hey all, First time poster from over at the 03/04 forums. Last week, about 30 minutes after I got out of the Marines, my Cobra was t-boned and declared a total loss. So, I'm beginning the long process of looking into the GT500 as a possible replacement. But I soon realized that I pretty much...

You won't believe this: 30 minutes after checking out of the Marine Corps for the last time... 1 block from my house in Jacksonville, NC.... 1 day from putting the Cobra on an auto-transport and towing her home to Chicago. THIS HAPPENED: The Cobra gave up its life to...

Hey all, Thinking about retiring my stock rims and getting chrome FR500s. Question though, I can't decide on the 17" or 18 inchers? Any of you with FR500s wish you would have gone bigger/smaller? Any sort of problems I will run into with going 18s on the car? Thanks a lot guys, appreciate it...

Hey all, Just thought I would do a quick write up for any of you who are considering getting a pair of MRT hood struts for your 99-04 Cobras. I know a lot of people WANT these, but are afraid of the installation. First off, this install is EASY!! MRTs require NO drilling and are a...

Hey all, Getting my hood repainted on Weds. What are you all doing to protect your hoods against rock chips, road debris and such? Don't want to shell out some cash just to have to repaint again in the short future. Heard the 3M Clear Bra is great, but wicked expensive. Thanks all! Mark

Hey all, Getting out of the Marines and turning my car into a garage queen. Need a new hood because this one has seen her share of rocks and dings. Anyone know where I can get a good quality stock hood for a good price? I've seen some on ebay, but hoping someone on here could let me know if...

Hey all, Got in an accident last night. Ended up "360ing" across 2 lanes of traffic and into a ditch. No other cars/poles involved, NO body damage at all to her, not even a scratch, except to two rims/tires that took the impact of a curb. Anyways, no visable damage to engine, engine...

Hey all, Thinking about getting a GPS unit in the car (Garmin 885T). I don't want wires running all over my dash (and my radar dectector is already in the cig lighter), so I was curious on if anyone had any luck wiring their GPS into their car? And if so, where did you tap into? Thanks in...

Hey all, My idiot roomie threw a football over the house and ended up giving the Cobra a nice 2 inch or so dent on its roof. After I finish burying the body in the backyard, just wondering if you all had some tried and true tricks to getting the dent out quickly and safely? Ive heard all...

Hi all, Looking for a good rear seat delete for my 03 Cobra coupe. I would love to get my hands on one of those "SVT" ones from that long ago dead website, or another type of logo on it. But, am open to others! I am located in NC (28540). Thanks for your time! Mark

Hey all, Still getting used to my Cobra and thought I'd ask a quick general question before I got worried. Can anyone tell me a certain RPM range that 1st and 2nd gear should be good till in our cars until we start losing power? I'm not talking about being good on fuel, or going WOT or...

Hi all, Issue is that I just got my 03 Cobra last week and don't know 100% what all has been done to it. Been driving her easy until I could get her on the local dynojet last night. According to my runs, I'm at 430hp with 428 max torque. Now, I KNOW I have a full Bassani exhaust system, have...
