Nicely done. Good craftmanship.

Just put velcro in wheelwell and under back decklid. The other side of velcro was sewn onto the Spats. I am actually surprised how nicely the velcro holds them on. You can pull on them to stretch them tight and it holds great. |

I thought about taking orders but would need a pattern for every different Cobra. The Backdraft also has a very smooth wheelwell on the inside so the velcro sticks good on it. Not sure how other Cobras are. I bought the commercial grade Velcro from Fleet Farm when I was traveling this week in Stevens Point Wisconsin. I'm sure most velcro would work but you want one with a very sticky adhesive. |

i have a contemporary, thought about the era spats...not sure what the fit would be. finishline seems to be what most choose--not an easy find, i can see why you made your own.

Thanks

Have you tested them at highway speeds?
Do they flop or move?
You've inspired me to add these to my car.
Nice Job!

FFR makes the best stick-on spats. Just trim to fit your brand.
