It is possible but why would you want to do it? The chassis is nearly the same from the 94-98 to the 99-04 chassis but the body style changed. You would essentially have to take off all of the body panels and put the new body panels onto it. I don't understand why you would want to do it though.

Lowering your car an inch or 2 will change alot, thats all I would do to a cobra.
