might just leave the door panels to match the seats and paint the rest. the tons of yellow is too busy for me.

i also need to tint the tail lights. last owner put ricer lights on it. so im gonna try and take em apart and paint all the chrome in em black.

The only Cobra appearance you have going is the wheels, so Cobra should never be used in describing the car for any reason.
No offense and not to be a dick... but..
You need to paint the whole car one color or another, it looks like a school kids ride that got a body kit and he couldn't afford to paint it after he got it put on. It just looks bad.

You do know that those appearance mods are not cobra right??? They are cervini's stalker body pieces...

And i like the 18 in cobras. Ive always wanted a set. But seriously, get the rest of teh body panels painted to match the car and then take care of the interior. I think the yellow seats would be a nice offset if the rest of the interior was black. And get them tires tire shined up. The wheels dont look good without tire shine on the tires.

Yeah, never say it's a cobra when it's not, lol. When are you getting it painted? Are you sticking with the same yellow?

I agree with almost everyone else.... It would be a GT/Cobra if you had a Cobra Motor in it.(then some people would let you call it a cobra). Other then that, you have a 98gt with a Stalker Body kit.

Exterior- The Car needs to be painted 1 color(yellow to match the $800 seats). Keep Black Rims, And throw other little Black Accents in the Mix. There is TOOO much black on it now

Interior- Isnt too bad, I would Probably leave the Vents Painted Black, And the Gauge Cluster Black. Paint the "Mustang" thats on the Glove box in yellow. Then I think it would look Great.

Nice car!! Not 2 long it will be a great looking car!! (clean up the engine bay a little bit)

Wow, you guys are being unexpectedly nice.

OP, that's the kind of Mustang that even my god daughter (she's turning 4 in Dec.) points and laughs at. It wouldn't be awful if it were actually painted one color, but that faded black and nasty yellow shouldn't be options. Either a brighter yellow, or non-faded/non-primer black.
