...so I decided to have fun and took out a Miasto kit that I had bought a while back.
You might recognise it as starting out as the kit version of the "Target" Cobra.
Here is what I did:
-Swapped the top with a Yellow '99 GT. (not as easy as the Chevelles or Camaros as the tops are ribbited on).
-Blacked out the gray wheels (it comes with two sets and the chrome factories are still fine)
-Lowered it 2 coil turns all the way arounf
-Detailed some of the interior with paint.
-Used the flock-in carpet. (I do not lke the result and I am going to re do it.
-Black washed the engine and rotors.

So this yellow Vert is a 1 of 1. :giggle and make it the 10th Maisto '03 Cobra in my collection. It still a work in progress as I hurried it up to take the pics.

Al, I think it looks great! Great minds think alike as Mark, (StJoeKid) came in last night with a 2003 'Vert like that only silver and a Maisto '69 Talladega as a gift to me. The first thing I thought of on the 'Vert was "I'm going to paint the wheels black." And low and behold you have done that to yours. . . :giggle

Very wicked looking Terminator...I'd like to see a 1:18 version of this: Theres an all black 1:1 ragtop, with black anodized wheels, and black anodized exhaust tips with a rowdy exhaust note, that prowls around here!

Thanks Fellas! :cheers

Jacob, what do you think if I added a silver ring to them?

Black out the pony

Old thread, but I just never quite liked the look of this car, so I reverted it back to the factory chromed wheels.

Here is what it looked like:

Here is what it looks like now: (Which leave me with a set of blacked out wheels, what to do, what to do?)

It's a matter of taste but I prefer chrome wheel on a Cobra.

To be sure, Al ,that looks far better.
It really turned out stunning. The yellow and chrome looks really good. :10

Hi Al!

I like the chrome better than the black wheels on this yellow Mustang. Have you thought about painting the wheels white? May look pretty good.

:cheers

Good idea! :goodidea: Maybe someone with PS skills can save me the wheels just in case it does not look good. Anyone?

Looks MUCH better without the black wheels, but then what car doesn't?

It is amazing how popular black rims have become in the last couple of years. This Stang looks good with the black, but in my opinion looks better with the chrome.
