Honestly I couldn't even tell you what springs i'm using, I used to have a GT a few years back, and i swapped them over to this. thats actually the main reason i love her.

Haven't had her dyno'd but she's pretty much stock. SLP Loudmouth exhaust, Pypes X-Pipe, N2MB Wide Open Throttle box with 2-Step, and i've been using Nitto NT555R's on Cobra R's when i'm at the track or ....

hit some pretty serious "speed bumps" already, so im a lil financially tight right now, I'll get to workin on her as things turn around. Not letting her go anytime soon.

I was also thinking about these, their basically the same but with the rivets.

I love your front end, I want the 2001, but im wondering if it'd look better with stock skirts or the cobra's

car looks sick man...the Gunmetal on the DSG is growing on me. nice suspension set up too man.

I wouldn't go with the riveted look unless they're real. I had the fake rivets on my last set of rims when I owned my 99 cobra. hated them after a week. hahahaha.

keep up the good work :thumbsup:

I understand where your coming from, the more I think about it, the more "tacky" it seems, i mean i guess if they were real 2 or 3 piece wheels it'd be official.

looking at yours, i just thought of how she would have looked had I done some black wheels, like flat black to accent the pinstripes and spoiler.

yea 2 or 3 piece rims def. make the rivets worthy since you really can't get rid of them. fake rivets I feel will fall off or rust.

and yea I HAD to go black saleens. love the saleens but the blacks just set it off so perfectly. But I'm trying to sell them now. :thumbsup:

The 01 Cobra front clip is sweet, so is the 04. I orginally ordered an 01, but Ford delievered a 04, and I was too impatient and wanted my car outa the body shop. So i told them to put that one on. Its grown alot on me and now im glad i have it. I think its more noticible than the 01. Its a little bigger, but makes it look good. Cant go wrong either way.

your absolutely right, only problem is my friends got a turbo 2v with the 03-04 cobra front bumper, so im trying to change it up with either the 00-01 with and keep my mach chin spoiler or maybe the stage 1 roush front bumper.

well I got new rims so I sold the saleens. didn't need 2 sets of rims lying around. stockers for the winter and my summer rims.

I would do the 99-01 cobra front end. I been looking for that bumper for about 5 or 6 months now. people want a good $350-$400 for it sometimes.:poke:
