RE: Cobra badges on a GT

I wouldn't care if you mounted dual Saleen flags through your t-tops in a four banger. It's a mustang, we're on the same side. Even if it did bug me, I'd keep that **** to myself when talking with another mustang enthusiast I just met. But heh, I'm not an *******.And I rarely use the term rice when talking about american V8's. Even have a few chevy and mopar buddies, poor ignorant bastards.

I personally take offence to losers putting cobra badges on their GT's. I spent good money so I could say i have a Cobra...

Then some random person asks me... "Is that a real cobra, or just another fake!" GOD that pisses me off!

Exactly!!!!!!!!!!! Your going to eventually have to carry around your dealership window pricetagto prove it's real.

you should take it as a compliment that they think so highly of your cobra they would spend the 20 bucks to try to pass theirs off as one. anyone who knows a little about these cars can tell a real from a fake. guys who have real shelby cobras don't get mad when people buy those replicas because it drives the price of the real ones up.

You don't go to car shows much do you? People who have real Shelby's HATE parking next to fake plastic cobra's or classic mustangs with Shelby badges (it's disgraceful). Like I said, I understand and appreciate restomods and bodykits, Just please don't put fake badges on your car and try to play it off for something it's not!

so wait... I'm an asshat ricer because I want to put the '86 saleen kit on my t-top after I convert it to a 5.0 and complete the supporting mods... (8.8, subframes, suspension etc...) now note, I'l be running 5.0 badges and not have a single emblem that reads "Saleen"

Read any of my post? If your have a 5.0 it's not rice to put a 5.0 badge on your car. Some body kits are cool, I actually love the Saleen body kit, and would love to see your mustangcomplete. Just don't pretend it's a real saleen by putting fake numbers on your bumper and putting on saleen badges. If it wasn't built by Saleen and you don't have production numbers on your bumper, then it's not a Saleen.

Oh and Dath, Did you read anything I wrote???????????????

P.S.

What's the topic about again?[8D]

No. Me quoting your text and responding with corresponding counter points was just a lucky shot in the dark. Carry on.

When your young and cars are new to you, you tend to do stupid things that lack taste, but at least your trying. As you get older you realize that Authenticity is important, and everyone loves to see a Real Cobra or Shelby much more than a clone! But I would never put down a guys car, or his girlfriend, even though they may both be ugly!
