What color you going with?

What color you going with?

Matte black. I thought the gloss decklid/tail lights and vent hoods would pop nicely on it. As well as small amount of chrome around the car. Also probably going to put like a cobra jet decal on it without the cobra jet wording and change the eyes. Plan on putting a cobra jet intake on it with some sort of turbo in the future so it should all tie together.

I'm paying around 2k. But it really depends on what you do. I'm getting graphics down both sides of my car so it cost more(+$200ish). Another example is I know chrome colors cost more. They also give you discounts if you prep it like I did (-$150) also if you allow them to put a logo somewhere of your choice (-$200). They can even put it on your back window if you don't want it on the car. Easiest thing to do is to make an appointment and get a quick quote. Call Justin if you're interested, mention my car and he should give you a good deal. (214) 901-6703

I'd take him up on that. As long as you get a family discount lol. It should help prevent anymore rock chips and those are the biggest spots the sun hits so you'd protect the paint.

A good day spent washing and polishing always seems to cure my itch to change the exterior. Just like my wheels...I have the black gt premium wheels and most days I don't like them. I can't explain what it is that I don't like and I spend a lot of time looking at different wheels on the internet and right when I get ready to buy some I'll wash my car and they look OK.

All it would cost me is the material and a case of coldies. I think he said it comes in 5 foot wide rolls and is something like 15 bucks a foot for the textured carbon fiber. Next time I'm down there I'll hit him up for some samples.

Not quite. We took a shelby snake and fitted it on and also moved it down to take up the whole side rocker. No other car has this decal. The closest I'm going to get to a CJ is the intake and cams I'm putting on in the future. Oh and there isn't "COBRA JET" on the sides...

Well I picked black to begin with because I like it. Why change it? As you can see my chopper is matte black too lol. Im going to customize my vehicles to my taste, simple as that. Also the mirrors and hood vents worked perfectly with the matte. I'd like to think this car is different. I don't think I'll see another exactly the same.

I think he used the CJ surround not sure. But nothing else.
EDIT: Actually no he started from scratch. Also noticed the tips on the back don't match up to the original either, the belly curves at the bottom and the eyes are completely different from the cobra jet. I think if i was trying to make my car a cobra jet i would of changed my 5.0 badges, my decklid emblem, use the cobra jet logo, install the cobra jet quarter window panels, put an off center strip down the center of the car and not have done many of the exterior mods i've done. Thats only if i was… not really the case here though.

I love how it came out though. Very stealthy just how i imagined. Will post better pics sometime this month. Thanks for the compliments guys.

Regardless...it does look awesome!

You and me both. Lol Felt like pretty durable stuff though. The rocks would have to go through it first to hit the paint. I know it comes with a warranty but can't remember how long at the moment. Otherwise you would have to pay to get that section re wrapped. Thinking about getting a bra for longer trips.

I had a bra on my 88 5.0 back in the 90's. I passed on buying a beater last year because I love driving this car so much. But I do drive 100 miles a day so the rock chips concern me as well as the value because at this rate I'll have 150K on it when I finally decide to buy a new one. All the mods I put on have added great gas mileage...except for the cat deletes - mainly because I get on it more now.

My Bro-in-law is sending me some samples of some of his vinyl and I'm leaning toward letting him wrap the hood and the roof just to help protect them a little. It's the premium textured carbon fiber stuff. All it will cost me is the materials and some coldies.
