low cost suspension upgrade
Replace my workout shocks and struts with NewTakeOff.com bitts. Picked up SR springs from AM on sale for 99.00. I have to say I love it. I think the whole shebang was under 225.00.

It really drives like a sports car now. Feels nice and tight. I'm really surprised that Ford actually screwed the thing together because I don't have any rattles! American cars are SO much better than they used to be.. USA USA!!

Depends, if the front toe is spot on and there isn't to much negative camber ( I run 2 degrees with no problems) its fine also the drop might not have knocked the rear end out of whack to much to matter.
Another cheap upgrade would be to snag some GT500 sway bars. I did this with Koni SRT's on my mom's car and it turned out nicely. The front bar is the same OD (but thicker ID) as the stocker GT bar but the rear is larger requiring GT500 specific bushings. Also of note are the stiffer front sway bar bushings on the GT500 but aren't a necessity.

No camber plates but i did get a pan hard bar. My car was way out of whack from the factory so lowering it only made it worse. Installed the pan hard and all is good.
