Default Finally Lowered - Pics

So my Stang is finally lowered on Ford K springs with Koni Str. Ts. The 8.8 is also installed, along with new front tires, brakes, and just had the tie rods replaced. Put on a GT front sway bar as well. The car has 75k on it and it now drives like a new car, I can't keep the smile off my face when I drive it.

Before


After








Still need to go by the dealership and get some more push tabs to put the fender shields back in. A few of you know I'm doing a motor swap and at the moment it is getting really close. Soon I'll be getting the adapter plate so the TR3650 can be installed, since my T5 is going out. Then my husband and I can take our time putting the motor together, so we don't have to cheap out on anything.

Thanks for looking.

Why does your grill look crooked? Seems like it points upward towards the center.

Haha, Mustang. Yeah the paint itself is pretty clean, its just the side skirts and wheels that could use some love, but I live down a dirt road, so its kind of pointless. And thanks, you know I really like your ride too.

mfregel, its not crooked, its just a pretty crappy design. It does point up toward the center. Next on the list exterior wise is a new billet grille that doesn't do that.
