Fuel Door Modification:

The UPR fuel door had the outer ring powder coated but I wanted to be polished to match the chrome wheels. So with sand paper, I started the job of removing the coating. It took me 8 hours of sanding from coarse to very fine sandpaper and ending with aluminum Mother polisher. I'm very happy of the end result. Two months after, I heard that UPR had started to make it polished since the demand was high. Damn! all that work and many blisters.

Here's a picture "before/after" and another once on the car:







Removal of Inside Paint on Wheels:

Last fall, I decided to bring the rims in the basement to do a very good wash job to the inside of them. it was stained with oil/grease/tar/brakedust. During the cleaning, I noticed a scratch on the greyish paint surface on the inside of the wheel. In the scratch, I could see that the surface was shiny/chrome. I rub more and more with Mother Aluminum polisher and the scratch became a shiny spot as large as a dime. After a search on internet, I found a procedure using paint remover to remove all that ugly and rough surface. It took me about half an hour per wheel. After 3 coats of Zaino, nothing will adhere to them and you can see through the spokes the chromy surface.

Here a couple of picture while I was working on them. You can see the change between the grey paint and the chrome surface.









Cobra Grill Emblem:

I replace the standard Pony emblem by the UPR Cobra:

SVT Certificates:

My SVT certificates, one for the Cobra itself and one for the Mystichrome paint package. For privacy purpose, I removed part of the serial number and I've added NOT ORIGINAL COPY.









Invoice:

My invoice posted in the car window, the day it was received at my dealer. Do not panic, the price is in Canadian $ and you need to multiply by 0.75 to convert into US $. I also had it reduced by $800 during the bargaining. Sorry for partial french but it was delivered in Quebec.
