Hello All,

I would like to know if anyone has the demenisons for the stripes. I noticed that there are 3 stripe combos to choose from:

1) Straight stripe with no taper

2) two stripes that taper

3) two stripes that taper with a thin strip that borders the stripes on the outside.

I perfer option 3 demensions. Is this correct striping for an original Cobra



Also, I am looking for the spacing and rivet count for the hood and hood scoop.

Do most of you glue the rivets or glue them.

Also do recommend aluminum or Stainless Steel.

Thank you for any feed back

I'm sure Evan could educate you on the proper rivet spacing and quantity. Or you could just search for Rivet Spacing.
The ERA site has some drawings for the stripes.
I don't think the originals had the pinstripe border.

I came across an interesting web site one day called "All things cobra". Don't know how to give you the web site but if you go to GOOGLE,just search "all things cobra" they have original specs,good luck!

Thanks

I guess the border is just an update (personal preferrence).

As for the rivets, how do you mount them with glue?

Or do you recommend to drill and install as usual
