Default Lowering Springs

Has anyone been able to locate some (reputable) lowering springs for the 2011 GT500? That's usually been my first Mustang mod, but I can't find any for the 2011 GT500 to save my life. No, (front) springs from a 2010 won't work due to the reduced weight of the engine of the 2011. 2010 front springs would be too stiff and probably wouldn't drop properly, not to mention handling would probably be negatively affected.

If you take a look at the FRPP 2011 Mustang SVT Coupe Handling Pack, the lowering springs are PN M-5300-L the same ones designed for the 2007 to 2011 ... makes sense to me.

Interesting. I didn't look at the part numbers.
