So there's not much of a color difference or transparancy in the windows with the ceramic tint, yet it blocks all that heat? It sounds impossible, but I'm very interested in trying to find someone around here that could do it.

Be careful what you order from CDC. That kit you mention is stock take-off parts (shocks and rear sway). Also, the springs are not lowering springs. So it's basically what you have on your car now. Like the old saying "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"

Thanks for the info, I posted the same question in the mods section

John H

Not exactly true. Here's a response to an email I sent them a couple days ago:

Hi John!

The springs are Ford Racing part # M-5300-P, and will be included automatically w/ the Handling Pack order. Please be sure to choose whether you have a coupe or convertible, as those springs are different. The struts/shocks are part # M-18000-A. The sway bar is similar to the rear bar used in part # M-5490-B, but reuses the factory rubber mounts.

I hope this helps! If there is anything else at all I can assist with, please let me know. Thanks again,

Now that I know this, I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on this package.

goldhillstang

OK that's even more confusing. The 5300-P springs are a 1" lowering spring yet the CDC website says they are not lowering springs. If the rear sway is from the M-5490-B kit it is bigger than stock yet they're saying you can re-use your stock bushings.

John H

I know what you mean. I don't know what to say.

goldhillstang

I say order it and let us all know what it is. If it's what they say it is, then it's got to be at least $685 worth of parts. Based on the lowest prices I've ever found for the parts listed. I just ordered the "P" springs, M-18000-A shocks and Eibach 35/24 f/r sways and paid $690 or I would order it myself to see what it is.

I picked up the kit and hood struts today.

So the before and after pic was just you moving the car??? lol

Was a bit hard to see how the car looked with the first set of wheels to compare to the after pic? Did I miss something or do you not still have the antenna that can pickup stations in mars?

Tint sounds cool.

Anthony k

Not too concered with the antenna. This is my other car and is more of a concern to me than the antenna on the other car

goldhillstang

Good! Let us know what it looks like when you receive it.

Anthony k

"picked up" meaning, I went and picked it up. CDC in novi michigan

goldhillstang

Well is it "as advertised" ? Are the parts new or take-offs? Was it the "P"springs that were included?

Anthony k

Search on user name CDC that's Patrick. He explains it fully in another thread of mine.
All ford racing parts. Not in normal packaging.

goldhillstang

Well I stand corrected. It's not take-off parts. It a good deal even if you only need the struts because they cost more than $350 anywhere else.

Can you provide steps for retrofitting the 2010 mirrors? I'd like to do this, but not sure which holes need to be widened, etc.
