I already order the Roush, I like the sound and adjustable tip.
Are you going to be lowering your car?
Yes I am going to lower it and have these springs- http://www.americanmuscle.com/steeda...e-springs.html
and Camber bolts
Hey guys need advice there. Parts order. Thanks in advance.
The GT500 axle backs are out of stock at AM where I'm going to place my order and not much of a fan of the dual tip.
This is what I have so far in my cart.
Roush Axle-Back Exhaust
MGP Black Caliper Covers w/ 5.0 Logo
Eibach Pro-System-Plus
Eibach Pro-Alignment Camber Adjustment Bolt
J&M Adjustable Panhard Rod
What do you guys think of the lowering kit?

Have you thought about the UCA, LCAs, and LCA relocation brackets? Then the whole thing should be all set and be able to be optimally aligned.
What I'm going to end up doing is Eibach Pro-kit springs, Steeda Adj. UCA, J&M LCAs (?), CHE Relocation Brackets, Steeda adj. panhard bar and brace. I'll look into the sway bars, shocks, and struts later. With the pro-kit drop, I've read the stock shocks and struts should be fine. I'm still debating a bit on the LCAs but I keep ending up back at the J&M ones mostly because of price ($99) and I haven't read anything negative about them yet.
Heard the same about the panhard bar. Something about the ends of the bar not holding up well. I ended up going with Steeda mostly because I also wanted to replace the panhard brace and as a package they seemed like the best value. Especially with a little forum hookup. But BMR was my 2nd choice.

Thanks for your insight, I have not thought about the UCA,LCA or the brackets at all. Are they really need?
This is what I plan on getting from AM today. I want to have them instal next weekend.

What do you think of this set-up. I basically want the car lower with some improve handling and NO WEAR ON MY TIRES.
Do I still need the Adjustment Bolts if I get the Caster Camber Plates also?
In response to your 1st question:
- Adj. UCA - will help realign the driveshaft after lowering the car. Not necessarily a big deal. Really depends on what your usage will be or whether you just want to play it safe. On this from what I've read the main thing is replacing the stock UCA bracket which is fairly crappy.
- LCA and brackets - the stock ones are basically crap (by just about anyone's opinion). Aftermarket ones will help to eliminate any wheel hop experienced on launch and the brackets will just help maintain the factory geometry after you lower the car.
As Danielle rightly pointed out it does end up being a decent chunk of cash but the more I looked into what I'd need to do to lower the car, the list just kinda grew.
My goals are 1st to lower the car to reduce the fender gap, 2nd better grip and handling, 3rd don't overstress the parts not being replaced, and lastly keep the increase in NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) to a minimum.

Nice ride OP! As long as money is burning a hole in your pocket, I would recommend Boss 302S wheels.
I will look in to the boss wheels but I have my eyes set on these
Piano Black Forgestar CF10 Monoblock Wheel
There $2600 for wheels+Tires+TPS Can I get a better set for that price.
