I got the Eibach Pro Kit and did NOT use/need the PH bar - no problem here whatsoever ! The shop that put on my wheels 'n tires after installing the Eibach Kit did an alignment and all is well.

Which side louvers do you have?
I like your side window louvers, which brand are they? Do you have any pictures looking out through them from the front seat?

They are Street Scene Gen 1, sorry I don't have the pictures you are looking for. They do not produce a blind spot. The vision is reduced, but you can see any car in the blind spot easily. I am selling them as I have bought the SHR flush louvers. If your car is Mineral Gray, maybe you might like to buy them?

So a bump for more pics of cars w/ something other than the Eibach Pro Kit...

But who knows, to me the FRPP cars look taller in the rear than the Eibach cars... am I crazy?
is it warm yet
n the garage waiting for warm weather: Pypes MM System, MGW Shifter, Dream Car Factory Hood, Foose Nitrous replica 20" wheels, Toyo Proxy 4's, WebElectric Sequentials...

had to give this thread a bump. I've decided to go with chrome razors. I'M not completely sure but maybe 295/40/20 tires on the rear. Falkens??? any imput??

I...can't really answer that. I know the wheels were quite a few pounds lighter than the stock Shelby GT rims, but when Shelby added the rims they also added the Ford Racing Whipple. So for me it was QUITE an increase in accleration...but I don't think that was due to the Razors.

Love the hood on the red one, what kind of hood is that?

Ok. I have looked all the posts and it looks that Eibach Pro Kit makes the cars the most lower from all others.
Two questions:
1/ Are you changing only springs or dampeners as well plus sway bars with Eibach Pro Kit?
2/ What else have to be changed (or is recommended to be changed) in suspension / steering when you lower the car?
