There is a sticker located in the Drivers side door jam area of the door itself, it should give you the paint code.

I don't know what Ford officially called the silver cars in the sales flyers, but it is a metallic silver if you ask me.

I'm noy sure but i think they made two silvers the early runs were satin silver the later runs were more of a metallic had more shine to it. The only reason i'm saying this because my friends silver cobra looks more flat satin, Mine has more mettalic and shine to it. My car was a late run, Can anybody correct me if i'm wrong

yep you are right, i was just lookin at a site and it said on the early early runs they discontinued the satin silver and then went with the metallic silver. my cars paint code says YN which converts to metalic silver. i clicked out of the site but do a google search on 03 cobra paint code and it's like the 2nd one down i think and it should be there. i would do it but my comp sux at work lol. oh btw your satin silver is the rarest colors for cobra's, including mystichromes which is pretty sick IMO, nice luck there.
