First I just want to say I love the look of your mach! How did the carbon fiber hood turn out? I have an 04 black, sadly I was in a wreck here recently plus it was skuffed pretty bad when I bought it. Needed an excuse to replace it anway

.....I have a few questions

1) When you installed the grill kit did you have to buy the 01 cobra kit or will the mach's fit?

2) Did the 01 cobra fogs wire right up or did you have to modify them?

3) What problems did you have installing the 04 skirts?

Keep up the good work

.....I have a few questions

1) When you installed the grill kit did you have to buy the 01 cobra kit or will the mach's fit? the gril kit should work just fine on the cobra's don't know if you have to drill some holes on it but it should work just fine

2) Did the 01 cobra fogs wire right up or did you have to modify them?
All the cobra fog lights are just different shape it should just be a plug and play with them
3) What problems did you have installing the 04 skirts? i couldn't tell you on this one, but i'm guessing it just alining up right could be the only reason for it not going on easy, but he will have to tell you.

Keep up the good work

i hope this help alittle if he doesn't respond quick to you

Sorry for the late reply:
1. The mach1 grill delete does not work well. I had that area painted by the body shop.

2. Yes fogs plug into our harness just fine

3. No problems at all. My problem is the set I got was 2 driver side skirt. So had to order a passenger side and sell one of the driver sides I got. The biggest problem I did not notice till after I had both painted. That was my dumbazz mistake for not noticing.

No carbon fiber hood yet. But still patiently waiting.

Yes it was the last one BOI (John) had. Keep in mind its an 01. He still has 03 fronts and rears. It is a ford bumper not reproduction. No fit issues at all.

You did. I think I am going to keep it and have it repainted when I have the CF hood painted. One of the driver side lift studs is snapped off and we had to cobble something together to get the MRT struts to attach. So probably not worth anything to anyone anyway.

ASH302 · 03-27-2010, 01:56 PM

so i was curious if you knew by chance what it cost to have your holes filled in and painted over? please pm

also i'll send you a pm.

Now to decide if I am going to do any paint on it. Kinda liking it the way it is right now. Saw JRs AB with the CF hood on it when I drove into his driveway. It looks badazz unpainted. Kinda old school blackout hood look. Going to wait a while before I decide. This hood is very high quality and the fit was perfect. I am more then pleased. Can't believe the weight difference. I like it a lot.

ASH302 · 04-04-2010, 10:24 AM

before he got the CF hood the way he had it painted looked sick, i'll be painting mine like that the stock one or CF hood. but they look good unpainted also
