Finally painted the '03 Cobra!
Alright, after a LOOONG wait, I finally have my Cobra back!
I was hit-and-run on the freeway a few months back after picking up my brother from the bar. It was a CRAZY night and a few cars were involved, but the guy who started the chain reaction drove off (drove the wrong way on the freeway and got off on an on-ramp). The person he hit ended up hitting me, and they got screwed with a DUI and had no insurance while the main culprit was never found. Here's the pics from start to end. The majority are camera phone pics that didn't pick up the color quite well.

AND NOW IT'S HOME!
 It's an HDR, but the colors are close accurate. The camera has a hard time finding the color, it's "Bright Aqua Metallic" aka Teal (92-96 Corvette). It still needs to be buffed out but looks very good regardless. I know some may not like the paint scheme or the colors chosen, but to each their own. The hood, btw, is a Cervini's '00 Cobra R. |

That's awesome, it's either green or blue depending on how the light hits it. Reminds me of Mystichrome.
