What MEATBALL size do you recommend?
I want to add cling on Meatballs to my backdraft cobra so it can have 2 different looks throughout the Summer. I would put one on the hood and one between the louvers and the door seam on each side. I looked at some different threads on this subject and thought the 19 inch size would be good but when i emailed Squier Designs they said they dont get many orders for that size. I dont have the car in my possesion yet so any advice would be appreciated.

I prefer the 1.6" size. That's enough to last the whole meal !!
(sorry, couldn't resist)

18-19 are standard for original race Cobras. I have 19 inch. Number 13 just like G.T. I copied him.

i have the same question, after some measuring on the car i came to the conclusion that 18" on the sides and 16" on the hoods might be right

So Jay measured the space from the louver to the door seam and it is 21 inches. I dont want permanent meatballs so i need them to fall in that space since i dont want to have to cut them for the doors. I will be ordering the 18 inch size for the doors and not sure about the hood yet but most likely will put 18 inch there also. I like the trim ring also on the meatballs so i will get that. I will order them with #5 which has been my sons soccer, tball and coach pitch #. I was thinking about 69 but not sure the wife would be happy with that, lol. Thanks for the suggestions and advice.
