So far, my vote is for the pictures posted by TButtrick (Silver with blacked out wheels). The right combination of original looking, not over the top ridiculous. Trust me, I have good taste.

Thanks JDean
Thanks JDean, I am blown away at the fact that you chose my car as the number 1 in your "most intimidating looking Cobras" I think there are some awsome and scary looking machines out there that certainly look the business. I took this shot at the musclecar masters recently, I thought the added blacked out lights make it a little more agressive looking! Great post by the way! I am loving all the pics the guys are posting. Bring them on I say!

SKINNEDR, I got them from Mustangs Unlimited. They are supposed to fit inside the headlight rim, I just placed them over the headlights and attached them with velcro!

I've been thinking of doing an FAI with that same combo but black rollbar. Would you toss the meatballs or no?

I don't think you "need" the meatballs; if you did, I wouldn't do them on the hood or the trunk; just the sides (is that proper race etiquette?)

I thought this car (CSX 4190) was mean looking.

I prefer the vinyl cling type decals and meat balls because you can mix it up. Sometimes just the hood, trunk, whatever. Move the decals around, like that.
However, real painted meat balls do look better, it's just to permanent for me.

A bit of "patina" and rock chips all over the front end shows people that their Cobra is driven and driven hard, causing other drivers of lesser machines to give those Cobras a wide berth.
