Looks great!

I may be too late on this comment though, but what if you did a trace/outline of the "COBRA" letters on the HE in black? I think it would make them pop more when it's tucked away.

I was thinking the same thing. The yellow letters on the bare aluminum would definately pop more with a black outline. Alslo OP, yellow COBRA outlines on the rear bumper would look tits instead of solid yellow lettering.

I didn't even think to do something like that. Looks like I may be getting out the masking tape lol

Also, this is just me, but I think having the COBRA letters black on the caliper would make them easier to read. Or any darkening for that matter, even a dark grey or gun metal.

Yes I tried to brush it with black but couldn't keep it from running off the letter:( so the silver will do for now lol

Little update. Decided to go ahead and put the H/E on. The B and the R look a little crooked for some reason but oh well you can only really tell up close.
