You know, I think you can get the MM CC plates for cheaper than steeda and those are straight out race-car quality... that's what I just put in. Pretty easy installation too.

Did you have to do any drilling for the new MM CC plates?

I'd probably go with the MMs as well, I think they're around $200 but worth it.

If you have the standard suspension setup, you can use whichever CC plates you want, but if you are going w/ coilovers, you'll want a steel CC plate. Aluminum plates tend to bend/break w/ coilovers since they put all the weight of the front end on the plates. Just something to think about.

I would check ebay also. I got a set of brand new MM CC plates for my 90 for 150 brand new.

What discount are you getting from mustangs unlimited? xmas sale? Not to bust them up, but jdmwerks on ebay has the tokico illuminas for 425 shipped for the set. NEW, of course.

For subs, look at laurel mountain, steeda, or MM and get the XL subs.
