Looks good. So have you decided on what the hell you want to do with that car? I was always worried that If I tinted my taillights that someone would rear end me and the cop would deem it my fault.

An officer can and will. Good way to get yourself rear ended too since people are idiots and cant see worth of shit anyway.

I didnt notice that you tinted the top bar for the brake light so you should be ok, cause that one illuminates also. Looks good!!

It actually is somewhat bright when I press on the brakes, its just that dark when its daytime and im cruisin and what not. but at night it looks like I dont even have tint on them, well you can see a little but of the tint but it is still very bright. Oh and I didn't tint my 3rd tail light at the top so if they can see that im braking with all that then they do need glasses, lol.

P.S. oh and Aaron, I decided Im gonna keep my car and eventually do a motor/tranny swap. so if you see any good deals on a 4v and/or a T-56 tranny, let me know :twothumbsup:

Look for an older Lincoln Mark VIII motor cause they are 4V and build it yourself. You never know how much a cobra motor has been beat on vs. a freshly rebuilt motor and brand new trans!!!!

BTW. Tint looks AWESOME

yeah thats true, will there engine swap in a mustang without any problems? my quest is to get a 4v, whether its iron or aluminum, and swap on at eaton on it, yeah i could go with a centri or what not, but the power goal im looking for can be had from a ported and pullied eaton, which most likely means I will forge internals, but in the mean time I would just run 8-10 psi on the compression thats already there. but anyways, i jsut want a 4v w/ an eaton conversion.

I checked with Dan and he said that the Mark VIII 4V heads are not compatible with Eaton's or any other real type of new Twin Screw... So there went that idea, time to look for a 96-01 Cobra donor car!!!!!

Aims might sell his engine when he orders his engine from MMR. I will let you know, but that might be a little whiles away.

Definitely. I'm hopin my motor lasts at least a year or two so I can save up quite a bit. I want a 5.0 stroker 4V with a twin screw + spray. Turbos are cool and all but too much unpredictability.

I need a black car so I can do a kick ass tail light tint cause that really is pretty sexy.
