If only they would make a front splitter like the Cobra R's for the 03 bumper. That would be great. Then we would not have to go out and buy the whole front fascia.
POLL: Cobra R spoiler on an 03?

Re: Re: Added traction is always a GOOD THING
The fastest I've gone so far is just over 150, and like you said "it feels real stable". Without the wing on imperfect roads, I got to tell ya, it can get very scarey very fast. You didn't miss anything by not getting the stock spoiler. It amazes me that they even put the stock spoiler on. It is a very fast car, and this spoiler serves no purpose other then to add weight to the rear end. Why design a car this powerful and fast, and not put "ALL" the bodyparts currently available in the Ford inventory to make it stick to the road. With a few small changes (a wing, and 315/35ZR-17 Goodyear GSD3's in the back), my car went from Good handling, to great handling.
Thank you, I know and accept that others do not have the same tastes as I have but that's what makes this world beautiful. Here are some more:

Oh what the hell, the real last one.
I love the R wing, but i went with the saleen s281 instead. looks great but you hear it move when you hit a bump. I think it is great to personalize your car. I have roush side exhaust s281 wing saleen side scoops and syling bar, it just sets you apart from the rest of the group
Hey Arthur I gots to say I love it. The car is bad ass like I posted before. I was really close to doing the roush sidepipes/stage 3 front end on my car with my wing and hood. I was really happy with the way my car looked untill I saw your car then I started to question myself. I think the R wing fits better on your car than any other I have seen.:beer: :beer: :beer:
Thank you very much I appreciate it.:beer:
I actually have 2 cobra R spoilers on my car. One on top of the other. Gives me extra weight in the back of the car as well so my tires hook better. With the one, I found people trying to sit on my car. Don't really know what they were thinking but now with 2 spoliers they can't get up that high.
Nice pics RoushRaven. The ones I put up of your car have been taken down since the recent server cleanup. Looks awesome!

This also causes more aerodynamic drag and slows the car down. So more horsepower is needed to go the same speed. But it's much more controlable at higher speeds.
Car Wings don't work that way. They are basically the shape of upside down Airplane Wings. Where as an airplane wing lifts up, the wing on a car pushes down. The faster you go, the harder it pushes down.

Wait a second, you guys are saying that putting r parts on a non r is wrong and for a performance purpose only, then why the f*ck does anyone anyone even put things like saleen wing or body kit on a cobra or gt or whatever its a mustang made part let it be on any mustang car. I dont know why the 00 r is always the biggest topic of controversy when it comes to using its parts on our cars. Its only a 300 production car so its barely a car and the parts they made for it are very nice anytime i see the r wing on a stang or hood i think its bad as hell and me i have the wing on my 99 red cobra and the r chrome rims. Call me a r wannabe, but i would have done it anyways if my car was black purple ect. the reason i bought it is i did not like the stock wing and needed something more sporty. You guys really need to think about what you are actually saying. saleen roush r parts who cares they all look good. get your head out of your ass for all u negative people.
Absolutely Not!!! I have the 2000 R wing on my 2003 Cobra and I think it's Awesome Looking. What I am saying is that it truely has a function too.
Just putting any wing on a your car doesn't mean it is doing anything to increase the performance, it could actually be decreasing it. Aerodynamics are very sensitive to small changes, and when it comes to the Mustang, the 2000 R wing is one of the very few that is designed, tested, and proven to work for this body style.
Please save us the agony of having to look at those pics on every mustang forum out there. Glad you are so proud of your car but enough is enough. I don't even browse the roush forums anymore cause of you. Everytime you take a new picture you make it a point to post it. There must be 1000 pictures of your car out there.
:bash:
KMA, I'll post in any relevant thread I choose to. If you don't like it don't look.
lol Do you have any more? I think its awesome. Mine would probably look like that if I was loaded. But I am not so the normal 03 cobra body style with have to do for now.

I say keep posting. Your car looks great.:thumbsup:
