Looking forward to this - though you're a bugger for punishment!
Can you share your plans or are you going to keep us in suspense :-)

Colour will be matt black, or maybe matt blue. Il be going for the modern look with carbon fiber bits and bobs and some new style alloys.

The front lip spoiler will most likely be carbon fiber but ive seen too many wraped cars look sh!te, peeling etc. most of the chrome bits you see on the car will be geting hydro-dipped in carbon fiber pattern aswell. Ive seen some work done by these http://www.hydro-graffix.co.uk and it looks spot on.

I bought a 3 series last week with these alloys on....
Theyr 18" with wider rears, I thought they would look nice on a modern look cobra but Im now thinking the bigger, the better!
I have a set of 20" insignia alloys sat in the garage il try on tomorow a d see how they fit....

Does anyone know of a car that has a similar front bumper to this..
ie. the holes on either side with the fins through?
Even if its somewhere near or similar look. I can then buy a bumper from said car and hopfuly cut the bits out and get them grafted on the front of my cobra?
Any help is appreciated even if you think a certain bumper doesnt look the same but would look better!
