Default Lowering questions

I was wondering how noticable a 1.5 inch drop would be and if 2 inches is too much.

2 is not bad, but you will scrape on speed bumps and big dips. You will also need new CC plates and eventually new shocks and struts. 1.5 and less will allow you to use the stock CC plates. A 2" drop gets pretty expensive when you add it up to do it right, but it looks good in the end.

lower that bad boy 2 inches... need shocks/struts, cc plates, and the springs. If your going to go through all the work, make it worth it! Besides, why would you want a stang that is sitting up like a 4x4 pickup?? you dont see vettes, bmw's, etc all jacked up
