Has anyone already lowered their stang? I have been looking around and want some feedback on which one I should get..I was looking around and the most i have seen is 1/2' in drop....and also how much did it cost to install....

I asked this question b4 and didnt get a lot of feedback. If you go on ebay there are some springs that will lower it 1.5" in the rear and up 2 1.25 in the front. They are made by eibach, which seems to be a very trusted brand.

well u c, non of these other guys have responded because lowering the car is something that our generation does. No offense Scrming and all you other oldies out their. try this site www.andysautosports.com they might have something

and for the installation, u could install the lowering spring easily with 4 jacks and patients and a second set of hands

Lowered mine and im 22 haha but I left it to the pro's let me tell you the difference, they slapped on my 20's and showed me what it would look like, I said definitely not gonna have that so they slapped on a pro kit and was set to go. Mass Fun I want a chin spoiler now but am worried about clearance.

Off topic a little but is it possible to just cut the spring height down like they used to do in the old days????
