2013 Cobra Jet bodies are currently on the paint line at AAI, in Flat Rock, Michigan. Cars are mixed in between the Mustang and Mazda 6 in the paint line. Enjoy the photos.

Cobra Jet bodies going into the AAI "dunk tank" for etching to prep for paint.

Cobra Jet bodies coming out of the AAI "dunk tank" etched and ready to roll into bake oven.

Cobra Jet body ready for primer stage. Door jams, roll cage and select areas are shot with a manual gun. Rest of car is shot with a robotic gun.

Cobra Jet body in final top coat and clear coat area of paint line before going into the oven for a final bake. 40 cars run through each paint line per hour. The robots are pretty impressive, they even lift and close the hood.
