RE: Lowering stock gt
I have the FRPP B springs and love them.
I highly recommend getting camber correction plates no matter what kind of springs you get.
Your drive will be slightly "tighter".
Your appearance will be awesome.

It's really about the same... we never measured it though.. I can tell you - i needed caster camber plates, and he didn't, lol - so who knows? Remember it also has to do with other suspension upgrades and what not... The blue is "Sonic Blue" i loved it because its deeper then the true blue, it also look lighter/darker depending on light, and was awesome against the chrome rims. Anyone that has a Sonic Blue mustang, I highly recommend Chrome rims, lol...

lol, the first series of pictures about sold me on a set of chrome bullitts, till I realized that it wasn't trueblue. I'm not crazy about chrome rims on trueblue cars for some reason, I thought I had found my first!
But I'm hijacking now....

i know mine is older, but the cars aside from looks and the engine are pretty similar underneath... and in terms of the ride, mine handles insanely great at high speed and turns, it's got sportline springs all around 2" drop, with MM CC plates up front. Mind you good tires greatly compliment a good suspension setup.
Only thing is tho I have one sagging spring [:'(] on the back left
One piece of advice is be careful when you do aftermarket headers/midpipe AND lower the car... if you don't have any real bumps it's not a problem, but I do scrape alot with the o/r H and the drastic lowness of the car... oh so worth it though!

Like I said before .. if you're just wanting a mild 1-2" drop and aren't planning on racing or doing anything extreme to your car .. cut your stock springs .. local placee usually charge around 100- 125 to do all four and they can pretty much "custom fit" you a drop to your liking .. if you go over 2 inches c & c plates are recommended ...
