RE: TO STRIPE OR NOT TO
OK man, got those pics like i said I would. I labled them so you know exactly where to go.
the back of the actual headlights are my aftermarkets, so some things will look different, but everything labled will look the same. Here you go. This might take a minute to load, they're all bitmaps.
Hope those help. PM me if you have any other questions!

Why not stripes on a Cobra? (SVT Cobra, in specific)
All SVT cars from '93 thru '04 were never known for having stripes in their visual styling language. That may the only reason why. Unlike the Shelby Mustangs ('65 thru '70 and '07), stripes were and are part of their visual appearance. Keep in mind that the current GT500 is a Shelby first before it's a Cobra (even though it has Cobra emblems and SVT center wheel caps). Then again, I have seen a few SVT Cobras with stripes at car shows. If they're done right, it looks OK. Especially if the car has an overall raced-out look (roll cage, no back seat, Recaros, lowered suspension, engine mods, etc.). Just my 2 cents.

I'm starting to think that black stripes, with dark tint, and black rims would look pretty damn sexy on that car. And even without the stripes, it'd still be nice.
Are your headlights full replacements? If so, that Cobra's gettin first class treatment.
