great news! i just received 5 complete sets of these tonight! all are in brushed finish and look incredible. i was planning on taking all five to the powdercoaters tomorrow to be done in black (while doing a bunch of other parts) but if someone wants to grab a set as they currently are call me first thing in the morning 818-357-2531 and ill be able to mail them out TODAY.
i agree, brushed and silver go together like peas and carrots.
unless you have butterfingers during the install you neednt worry about scratching your hood. these are precision fit. they wont be moving around at all.
as mentioned, you can always fix that with the grinder lol. the only part that extends lower than stock is the baffle part. you dont have to install that part if you dont want to. and you can install it later if you want to. its held in with some machine screws and is installed last. or, you can grind it down shorter. im sure i can have my builder do this as well if you (or anyone else) doesnt have access to the proper tools to do this.
thanks for calling the other day mark. im sorry i didnt get to call you back. i will try to do so today/tomorrow :beer:
good talking to you today Tob. i passed on your compliments to my builder to tell the machinist :beer:
i was chatting with Tob on the phone today. he is a machinist and was telling me that he can see just in the pics, the quality of the machining and design that has gone into these.
no prob sarge! i figured you'd want a black set to match your stripes and wheels :shrug: but whatever you want brother! :beer: oh and i need those stock vents back asap lol. you'll be replacing them soon enough with some brushed billet vents :beer:
ill have 10 more sets in the next few days and many, many more next week. ive already talked to a few retailers/dealers who plan to pick up a few sets so grab them while you can at this low introductory price. show season is right around the corner and the last you'd want to do is call me to get a set and im all out. it happens ALL the time with the 03 cobra hood vents :read:
call me at 818-357-2531, PM me here or email me at [email protected] today
+1 - I think the brushed would ultimately look better with silver stripes on the alloy/silver. I put other brushed next to stripes and it was almost dead-on
+1 - what about scratching hood? Would like to buy, but wouldn't want to scratch hood...

I'm currently fitting my new 3.6LC under my stock hood, my question is. Do they extend into the engine compartment any deeper than the factory units? I want a set Steve but I have some really tight tolerances...I'll take a set if they are the same! Just like the ones pictured above!

Steve I'm in on a set too.
I'll figure out what finishes I want and give you a call.

Once again, I'm in Steve. Powdercoated satin black on every piece. I'll call with my cc info when I get home from work.
Nice job. Thanks for doing this.

steve, i would like my set to be EXACTLY like the prototype, brushed with that mesh and not the caddy mesh and the only part i want coated is the lower piece you said you are going to do anyway.
will there be interchangeable inserts in the future?
