I didnt get quoted on a price yet. I didnt actually make it out to CJ's today because it's exam week and late night cramming kinda caught up to me. Maybe next tuesday or thursday or right after i get back from spring break. shouldnt be all that much.

Well the subframes themselves are $120, i dont think that the install is too extensive that it would be 2 hours of labor. If thats the case, I'll just wait to go home and get my mechanic to order them and install them for me for next to nothing. I mean he makes subframe connectors custom and he uses extra heavy box tubing...i forget what thickness the walls are but they were probably close to 1/4" thick and they weighed a ton but I think that he told me that he would make them and install them for $100. He put a set on his "silver bucket" we called it and they worked well for him on the strip. Would custom subframes work ok??? Is there anything that you can screw up when making them??? Also, new criteria, how about subframe connectors or the 03 cobra breaks that my friend has sitting in his garage for me??? All 4 corners, drilled/slotted rotors on the back, a full set of replacement rotors and all brackets and hardware for $150??? Does that get any more votes than the Subframes???

Its already saved for me and yes i am buying them. But im debating buying them first or the subframes cus i need new tires for the rear right now and im trying not to blow too much on mods until i get the new tires. After new tires, im getting lower control arms, new shocks/struts, and some other suspension stuff too. Gotta get ready for Mustang Week...which i just found out i get to go to this year!!! 
but yea, all the calipers and brackets and hardware that i need to install them.
