which theme for my black 98 Cobra

[ASH302]

ok I wanted to see what others thought about this, I really am hung up on which route I want to go, but got a few different ideas
1. Batman theme, its been hard finding the snake emblems with yellow in them on the belle and scales. fill in the rear bumper with yellow letters and yellow the SVT emblem and yellow decal batman on the back
2. Batman theme but do it in red instead of yellow. found the emblems
3. purple heart theme, try to find the letters for the rear bumper in purple, find gold snake emblems and purple heart emblem or decal below the snake emblems on the fender.

I'm kind of liking the black and red theme to be honest

tell me what you think

just not a fan of yellow, a nice dark red could work really though

Obviously you know my first choice, but the black/red theme would be easier. The snake emblems with the red relief were part of a one time GT500 package. It also features red striping on either a black or a red car. Besides, the Barris Batmobile was black with red trim...how could you go wrong?

Honestly? None. Theme cars are cheesy 99% of the time and good luck selling it unless everything is a temporary mod(which, you know, you have a tendency of doing often lol).

I guess what I meant by theme is on a couple of those would be theme, being the batman and purple heart one
the other was just black with what color
which like the mach color and then black with it
I think I am going with the black and red combo, as stated above, would be easier going that route.

I seen those, my only problem was that I do not know if the front grille snake will fit on mine in the gap and for the side emblems I do not know if it would be too big for the body on the side. need to search for pictures

here are the ones I was thinking about using


what I might do is just get a paint marker or something to do the belly red myself, that way I don't have to take them off the car

ok I think I will use the front cobra emblem from the picture above then do the Shelby ones for the side
These are much taller (4.25") than earlier model cobra emblems (2.75").

BLACK AND RED is what i'm going with
LMR had after I choose to with red, they had the rear bumper letters for on sale for $6 bones, only 20 left they said in stock, so jumped on two of them

Yes Texas has where you can get the purple heart plates, which I already got mine. I'll leave the batman off there for now. It will just be black and red right now.

Well for sure going with the black and red, almost thought black and orange, but its all good, anyways the car was either not detailed for a long time and has some very hard water spots on it, mainly on hood, roof and rear. also like its been sun faded also. I have tried clay baring it, waxing and etc. nothing is making it work, this morning took to a professional detail shop and just asked if they could clean it up and get the spots off and the guy was like "no".
So here is where i'm at right now, I was either going to go to a body shop and ask how much to fix the hood, roof and rear, or for right now because the roof is the worst off, is do like the boss 302 has and get roof wrap with red overlay on it. got to see what there cost is though on wrapping the roof, but it would be kind of a fix for the roof, I believe I would like it like that, but do not know for sure.

I ended up changing the color that I'm going with on black, thought I would go bright and do green like the GHIG color. So order the rear bumper insert letters, cobra snake head black with green outline on ford oval emblem, also did Saleen style side decal, but says Cobra. Going to leave the Cobra emblems red though. I love bright colors, was thinking of going orange, but I love the bright green color, kind of like the energy drink monster.
