I also love the 03-04 cobras.
What I find funny is us as Chevy guys, accept and love the Cobra's, but the Ford guy's absolutely hate our guts, and our cars.
I guess they are butt hurt over 10 years of OHV motor's beating up on their technologically superior DOHC motors![Barf](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_barf.gif)
This is not directed at the OP as he obviously is not one of the Chevy hating Ford owners out there since he is a member on this site and posts his ride up here, so he obviously appreciates the LS motors.

^yeah i had alot of ppl liking the stripes when I first did it. i have a huge thread with all compliments. but then after that, everytime i posted new pics.. ppl on svtp would just bash the car because of the stripes. got tired of it. i also removed them because i was wanting to try a new look.
i might come back next year with flat grey stripes. i think that'd look cool. i did the stripes myself so it was easy and free. used a 12" roll of vinyl, had to trim each piece to 9". hood had to be cut a certain way because of the curves but it wasnt that hard. plus i kept a template of how i cut the hood.
