Don't worry about naysayers; they got the wrong history. It is your car and your money. Personally, I like the street look.

I would compare the 'side pipe' look to modern import car guys putting cartoon-like rear wings and racing/parts stickers on their street cars. It just screams 'race boy'
At least you are consistent nyg, a day late and a dollar short on most things cobra, but then again - spectators from the cheap bleacher seats aren't expected to know all the players names. Bone up boy, there will be a test later
