Rick,
Just so you know, you're not comparing apples to apples. What you have seen are sandable gel coats made to be painted.

Do you think all those Cobra manufactures can't make a perfect mold, finish off their own mold lines, fill in all air pockets and pin holes.

Of course they can, but that costs a lot of money, and a lot more time.

When is the last time you looked at, even semi-quality boat? See any pin holes? Naaah. It's all in the prep fella, it's all in the prep.

We do more streetrods than we do Cobras. Take a look at Gibbons, Downs, Wescott's, A&C's, Redneck's or Outlaws body's. An airpocket is a rare thing, a pin hole or two is the exception! Body seams are NON EXISTANT! I only wish one of our Cobra family's would put that much quality into their cars.

Of course they would have to charge about 2 or 3K more for their kits!

DV...we do love quality
