So much for an informed post  I think you have Backdraft confused with companies that sell kits... and let me know when you find a Cobra on a BMW frame???  |

You've never heard of the Bim-bra or the Cobr-immer? 
Doug, I love red, blue with white stripes and black painted Cobras. One reason I chose unpainted is because I wouldn't have been able to make up my mind about a color scheme let alone a particular shade of color. I chose sanity first. I think psychologists call it "avoidance." |

I thought you chose it because it would reflect the light better in your garage so you can see when you're kicking back in a lawn chair with a beer enjoying your car.....

OK, not piling on here....but the garage door stays closed. RodKnock monitors his car through a security camera in the comfort of his security bunker.

Piling on? I think I got a stinger, pulled a hammie, blew out my ACL and received a concussion all on this thread.
BTW, no CCTV for my garage to view my Cobra. You know how new parents put their newborns in their bedroom inside a bassinet next to their bed? I sleep right next to my Cobra in the bedroom.
Chas, I thought we were on the same side (Patrickt's Haters Club)?  |

You only do that with your first. After that you put them on the other side of the house.  And WTF is this "Patrickt Haters Club"?!?  |

Take it easy. It was a play on, if you can remember this far back, The Little Rascals: Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, etc. You know, the "He-Man Woman Haters Club."  |

Patrick, it can't be that they hate you, it must be that they hate your avatar!
I was looking at it, thinking there is something strangely familiar about it, then it dawned on me....how can one not look at your avatar and see the spitting image of Groucho Marx? It's just eerie!!!!!
Cheers from Dugly !

O Dude-we most definitely are! And we know that club's full title is the "PatrickT, and Dual Roll Bar-Hater's Club". We are equal opportunity haters.
