If you only lower the car an inch it's still not going to look lowered. My recommendation is at least 1.5" drop to make it look better. Springs, struts/shocks and CC plates are a good start. Then you might want to look into a bumpsteer kit. Make sure you get an alignment after giving the springs a few days to settle.

ive read quite a few threads about people being disappointed with their drop.

OP: what springs are you currently looking at?

i had sportlines on my 94 GT and i liked them. they had a nice ride when paired up with shocks/struts, caster cambers, bumpsteer kit, and x2 balljoints.
