Crescent wrench- I did get it aligned, however im not sure how the place that aligned it went about doing it... But it seems like your a bit apprehensive to do springs. All i can say is theirs endless possibilities with suspension parts and you HAVE to start somewhere, so why not start with one of the least expensive parts that makes the biggest difference. If your looking for a killer deal on a few parts ClassicDesign Concepts has a GREAT deal on some FRPP parts right now . Heres the link http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...t_detail&p=152. Good luck

Stangfoeva- Lol its all good man , your before and after shot was at a better angle

Laserred- Haha your the 2nd person to tell me that. Im actually really digging the way the roush grill looks , BUT im in LOVE with my massive fog lights. Not sure im ready to give them up yet.

Everyone else -Thanks for the kind words
Thanks for the tip....and you have a GREAT looking Mustang!

Springs + install = $495 alignment = $75
Total=$570
I could have gotten it done for about $100 cheaper somewhere else but I really trust the guys who installed the springs , they do great work .

Thumbs up

Well admitted it does get pricey. However it drops the car 1 1/2 inches not 1/2 an
inch. And if I went with springs like h&r's or the eibach sportlines since they're much
more aggressive, through time ride quality would suffer and throw off camber etc . But
the Pro-kit simply isn't aggressive enough to have such adverse effects.
At least from my prior experience with them in my past cars.

The Mustang was never meant to duplicate the ride of a caddy. Ride quality is actually improved for those of us who fancy the feel of a suspension that holds the road...The feeling of a firm responsive suspension improves high speed confidence. I would venture to say that settling for the stock suspension to suit your performance needs, makes little sense to me. But then again some folks want to just ride, while other folks want to drive!!!

Don't underestimate the feel of performance! it goes a long way....

Eibach pro's are the perfect combination of performance and ride, take it from a guy who had sportlines on his car for 2 months...but **** i miss how well them sportlines took corners....lol...i still have them, maybe i will save them for my next stang....lol

I believe the term(s) you're looking for is "murdered out." Get it right, yo!

Lol i love your car man !!! I plan on being your exact OPPOSITE twin. I am going to add Grabber blue stripes on the sides of my powerdome, and probably a 1/2 ring around the end of the wheel. Your car was one of my motivations!
