Has anyone who installed the Eibach springs have a problem with scraping parking blocks?

I noticed that the stock GT just barely clears most parking blocks. And with the Eibach kit lowering the car 1.5" I think that there could end up being a clearance problem.

I can't answer your specific question, but I had my '88 GT lowered but 2.5 inches.... it'll scrape on everything. The way to get around that is to not pull the nose over a parking block, not pull it over a curb. When you go over a dip, take it slow if you can, or take it at an angle. I paid a lot of stupid tax, because I was 18 when I got that car, and didn't know any better, but my second Mustang, a '98 GT, I never had any problems with at all, just because I was super conscious of how I parked, and where. I never dug the rims on a curb, because I alwayws erred on the side of caution.

It will only scrape as much as you let it.
