Kona washed and lowered
Washed the ride today and I installed the Steeda Sport Spings on it over the weekend. The rear shows the biggest difference. I measured before I started and the rear came down about 1.25 inches and the front came down about an inch.

Both are super nice!
AJ: You're a California dude like me, where's your front license plate mounting bracket? (Or at least the $^#@ holes they put in the front part of the frame to mount it?) Stoooooopid California laws.
Sorry for the thread hijack here... again, both of you have drop dead gorgeous rides.

Thankfully the dealer didn't drill the license plate bracket into the front bumper - they left it in the trunk. I'd rather pay a fix-it ticket than have the front plate.

Interesting: I thought it a law that any car sold in CA have the bracket installed. (Could be wrong on this point, though.)
In any case, Lucky Dog, you! (Again

I'm down in South Jersey near Mount Holly. As far as the ride quality with the Steedas....I was expecting it to be a whole lot worse. It actually surprised me that it's not a bad ride at all. The last Mustang I owned (98' GT) rode like crap after I lowered it with a set of Eibach springs. I would recommend the Steedas!
