Custom Cobra intake plate design wanted. Graphic guys come in here :) August 08, 2005, 10:25:29 PM Well I'm really tired of the cobra intake plate, I ripped it off today. I'm looking for something unique that we all can be proud of. Something that reflexs our community of tbirds/cougars/marks, and something that everyone would want to be a part of. We can vote on a final design and take it from there. I'm looking for a logo the proper size that will fit the cobra intake and the standard mustang/explorer intake so we will need 2 designs and most likely a smaller one that will fit a gt-40 upper (tom put that kenmore plate down don't even think about it HAHAHAHA).Maybe it's me or the beer but aren't you guys tired of the mustang stuff and would like something of our own?

It's not scaled correctly and if it was, the design might not fit on the size of the plate. But here's what I would do for a T-Bird with the Cobra manifold. Quote Selected

However...this is one of the few areas of the car that has remained unique and I'd like to keep it that way. But I'd gladly help design something for ya, Bob. I have the template already made to scale. Let me work on something. Quote Selected

It needs to be unique. I'm looking for something for us guys who don't really care about shows and judges and would want something nice for the track... and that shows support for the what we are all about. Quote Selected

I scanned my hand-formed aluminum plate and made the drawing to the plate for an exact fit; it's done in vinyl. Quote Selected
