I'm rolling on the black machined ones myself. I get lots of compliments on the wheels as not many people have them.

cool man , hope your going gloss black, and dont go to thick on the stripe , just a 1\4" looks good more than that and it starts to look cheesy.Nice to see another Terminator on the coast , did you find it localy or across the boarder.

DO NOT GET BLACK CHROME ...it will look horrible

do yourself a favor, if you go one tru forged website there is a TON of pictures of the owners former ride ( torch red vert ) with various wheels.

Also, here is a photoshop I did of my car to see what CCW's look like.......if I ever got wheels, hands down it would be these. In fact, im keeping my stockers until I find a set for sale.

Nope, Chilliwack. Have a bunch of friends there tho...lol

Saleens are ok.... not my cup of tea... but it's ur car and you have to be happy with it! They do look good, I just see them on so many GT's and even cobra's now that I feel they are more overdone than FR 500's as well. So I went for something I know no one new my area has. Anyhow, that's just my opinion. Don't want to rain on anyone's parade....

BTW, love the color of your car, always been my fav color, I just couldn't find one when I was looking years ago. We need to set up a cruise/photoshoot at some point this summer. :beer:

yeah that's what I was thinking at first but they've grown on me a lot in the last couple weeks.. was thinking about FR500s but Saleen it is now :coolman: and its all good everyone got their own taste :beer: Thanks I was looking for this color or black for a while then finally came across it in Bellevue,WA. Yeah fasho maybe get a couple pointers on doing mods on my engine & so from you :p Probably one of the youngest to own a Cobra on the forums.. 18 now 19 :D

Going high gloss black saleens myself. I posted this comment in another thread on the same topic. I will go out of my way to pay big bucks for performance parts like a 2.9 whipple R compound tires wilwood big brakes, 3 inch exhaust, 3rd engine build lol etc etc but for what ever reason I just could never find it in me to pay big bucks on a part that was not performance oriented. That might change though after looking at some TF and CCW's.

Lol... I did all the other stuff first, other than little finishing things here and there all that other stuff is done.... besides I have a vert, more of a fastish show car than a street warrior/race car...lol And I was sick of the standard wheels... I had FR 500's, see sig... for three years on there... needed something new to match the direction the rest of the car went. :beer:

yeah that's what I was thinking at first but they've grown on me a lot in the last couple weeks.. was thinking about FR500s but Saleen it is now :coolman: and its all good everyone got their own taste :beer: Thanks I was looking for this color or black for a while then finally came across it in Bellevue,WA.

Yeah... I have horrible taste tho. My car is to blingy now and takes endless hrs to get ready for a car show...lol You should come to some shows this year... No one ever seems to show up anymore in my category... would be nice to have some comp with another vert!! Especially in that color.
Also you should stop by our local forum... you can find out all the cruise info, photo shoot info and show/racing info on there. Bit slow right now, but it winter... haha

www.westcoastmustangs.ca There's the link. :beer:
