No, I have a buddie with an Kenne Bell'ed 03 cobra and he wanted to run welds. And as im sure most of you know the cobra calipers are too large for the welds so I traded him my GT rotors and calipers plus some cash. I'll have pics on the car soon. it's dark out now

Those are the 10th ann. Cobra brakes!
MMM Those are the ones I want... However Id take the oem Brembo rotors over the crossdrilled/slotted that wear your brakes down quicker with little results over blanks.

I used Bullit brakes...exact same things, except there's a running pony on it instead of "cobra" Don't make fun of my curb rash either you turds, lol.




Your's look good Joe...red calipers on black stangs rock :headbang: And yes, the rears can be bought as well as part of a kit.

I figure the chunks of metal I ground off with the curb saved me some rotating weight, lol. It's not a show car, so as long as they still shine a little, I'm not concerned.

Ok...I'm done hijacking
