Im not sure which way to go right now, i really only have money for one of them so i have to decide. I really like the 03-04 cobra bumper, and i can get one painted to mach for $340. and was planning on putting my chin spoiler from my other bumper on there.but i also semi reciently installed my pro-kit (3-4 months ago) and im thinking my stock shocks are probably going on thier way out, so i wanted to replace those with some KYB AGX adjustables for about $360. which one would yall go with? and does anyone have pictures of a mineral grey GT with DD Bullitts and the cobra bumper?

hey man...i have the pro-kit with the KYB AGXs and i really do NOT like the ride...i love the KYBs but i feel like it is the springs...idk how yours rides now with the stock shocks/struts but mine kinda suck...i'd replace the pro-kit with some H&Rs when you do the KYB AGXs

for right now...you have a pretty nice mod list to start with...i'd do the cobra bumper

Alot of people are all about performance, but theres nothing wrong with making your car look better. I'd love a 03-04 cobra bumper.

If i were you I would do the KYB's first because you said you think your struts are going out so you better get those before they get worse plus you have the springs waiting to be put on.

[&:]..um yea..^

if you need to do shocks/struts just save up a bit and go coilovers

are you sure you installed them right? your the only one i have heard of that diddnt think the ride was better with the pro-kit. your going from a linear to progressive spring rate, so it should be softer under normal driving but really stiff under spirited driving.....what are your shocks set to on stiffness? if theyreon the hardestsetting that is why youprobablydont think itrides good.also your wheels look like they sink alot more into the wheel well than most pro kits, im not sure if it had something to do with the way you positioned the springs in there but it shouldnt ride like crap

no i know other people who have ride issues...i'm not saying it rides HORRIBLE..it IS a lowered car afterall..and i had a shop install them...they actually were a LOT higher when first installed...they settled a lot over time...i've noticed that the Pro-Kit seems to lower the V6s more than the GTs...which is wierd because the GTs way more...i have tried all the positions on my AGXs....i used to have them set on 2/4...but that was too soft on the freeway...i now keep them on 3/6 which is pretty good on the street but still too soft on the freeway...it is wierd i can feel the damper rebound but then the rear will still wallow a bit...4/8 was just ridiculous...but even on 4/8 which is the stiffest setting the springs still felt wierd

mine actually feel stiffer around town and softer on the freeway...however on the really demanding canyon road i usually go to...they do pretty good...still wish i went coilovers for the added adjustability though...i didn't think i would need it...i thought the AGXs would be enough adjustability...which they actually are i can feel the difference between each of the settings...i'm convinced the springs are holding them back

also my left rear sags a little...which is a common complaint among people with Eibachs
