The black powdercoats look sharp! What color is your 'stang? Maybe I should get a set for mine. That price rocks! I wonder about the quality though...

yes that set is freakin nice looking, i know this dude with a 99 cobra that has them on his car, he told me about the website.... my stang is black , so im gonna get the black saleen replicas and the steeda Q400 hood, thats about all the mods im gonna do appearance wise, everything else goes into my engine, exaust and rear end, maybe ill change the front brakes into cobra brakes too, because the stock GT brakes suck a good amount of ***

You say you want to upgrad to cobra brakes? If I had the money and wanted to upgrade my brakes I would deffinetly get the new 14.0 inch roush big break set up. It is probably more money but I know that they decrease your stopping time from 70 mph by about 45-50 feet over stock breaks.

If you are gonna do something you might as well do it right the first time, don't you think?
