looks real nice. that spoiler looks a bit different than other 281's for some reason.
by the way, your mirrors are "textured" right? meaning they are not perfectly smooth? just wondering how the paint looks on them. got a close up pic?
94-95 mirrors have a smooth finish 96-98 mirrors are textured. not sure about 99+ mirrors though.

He sanded them down and painted them, so I'm guessing they are smooth. My mirror's weren't perfectly smooth either but after I sanded them and painted them, they are now. Our mirrors didn't come painted from the factory.

Thanks guys.

I didn't really sand the mirrors. I took a plastic scotch brite pad and used it to rough the surface. I then primed and painted them. They aren't completely smooth but it's in the paint/cearcoat, not the plastic underneath. Here's a closeup

Looks good! I was wondering why you have black around your tail lights instead of the stock yellow paint? I think with the yellow around them they would look good because you painted your side mirrors yellow. But don't get me wrong, you have a amazingly nice Cobra! Definitely a :thumbsup: !!

Actually I did that before painting the mirrors. I was going to get smoked headlights also but decided to spend $20 on clear corners instead of $170 on new headlights. Since painting the mirrors I have been thinking about painting the bezels back yellow. Haven't really decided yet. I still have some CY paint I just have to do it.
