just buy black vinyl inserts, like $10 or $15 bucks from americanmuscle.com
That's what I did and they came out looking great!

i think that he has "mystic cobra" it was a factory paint option for cobra's it changes from green to blue to purple then black depending on where the sun reflects on the paint.

hew thanks for the input, my car doesn't have the mystic paint job even though that is pretty cool looking. it really does look like a snake so i will try to get a camera and take some pictures for you guys. it's a custom panint job but i got the car with it so i don't know how much it cost to the previous owner but yeah thanks again for the feed back!!!
