    I was going through my storage and found a brace I had that came with a 2003 cobra I bought. Looks a little different from that one and it doesn't have the piece with the 2 bolt holes on the vertical part of the firewall, just the ones on the bottom (probably the one you needed). I thought there might already be mounting holes in the towers for it but there isn't and I'm not so sure about making any because if I ever take it off, I'll have holes all over, not like there's not already from factory, but still.
    Good idea about painting it to match the car. If I do use it, I may just have to do it to my '01 Cobra since I have to get paint for the hood and bumper anyway. I just wonder how much it helps performance wise, especially since my car has front and rear full suspension. The only thing missing is tubular a arms, but I don't want the car to feel like a go-cart.

      Is yours a 2 point brace? I’ve seen the ones where it only bolts to the strut towers and not the firewall, I just got this one cheap and figured I’d make it work lol. It was all grungy and the paint was coming off when I got it so I decided to clean it up and paint it and I figured why go black if I can match the car. How many Cobras do you have?

      That's really cool man! Do you have any videos on it? I'd love to check it out. So why did you build the 7.5 and not go 8.8? That couldn't have been cheap to do. That's why I did the swap because it was way cheaper

      That's awesome man. I got lucky with my 8.8 because it already had 4.10s in it. I actually found it in Illinois so I drove 4 hours round trip to get it lol
