you probably need to make a routing request to your ISP
to ask them to advertise that  75.160.109.xxx is available via 
168.103.150.x
they may charge you $$ to do so or may not even want to do it.
They may also require proof that you own them.
this may be a problem as they are owed by cox communications and Quest.
you'd thus have to get permission from each ISP to route teh other..
