Well I just ran out and measured. After lowering my car and putting that kit on it sits 4.5" off of the ground. If someone can measure a stock GT that would be great but I think the car sits a total of 3" lower than stock.

Wow, I'd almost be too scared of ripping the front fascia off to drive it. Actually, that's my main hesitation about doing the Cervinis Eleanor kit... 4" front clearance after installing Eibachs...

Well now I always drive up entrances at an angle so only 1 tire goes over a bump at a time. I never will try going up a driveway dead on.

I use Meguire's NXT wax. Although I have not waxed the parts that were just installed. I need to wait a few weeks before I can wax them.

John, what color shaker are you going with? Just leaving it black, painting it white, or doing the white with a Sonic stripe? Awesome car, and keep us posted!
Steal101: Right. Your car has occasionally made me regret getting Sonic instead of black. Black just rocks, and now you're wondering if you should have gotten Sonic? Your car may actually end up as the ispiration for mine. I'm still on the fence as far as direction my mods will take.

Well once I receive it I will bring it to the body shop to see what they think of painting aluminum. I've heard that aluminum chips very easily. If it is fine, then yes, I will be painting it to match the car

Adrenalin- It looks fantastic! Send us some pictures and we will post them on our web sight. Send them to rick@streetsceneeq.com and ask Rick to put the photos up on the Street Scene web sight - Nice work! You need the black powder coat grilles now and it will be perfect!
