    Mystichrome bumper damage

    Man, I haven't been on this forum in YEARS. lol Anyway, my 10 year old son closed the garage door on my rear bumper last night. The paint was by no means perfect, but THIS...it's just so obvious. There are three parallel scratches and the middle one is kind of deep, sort of a gouge, I'd...

    Cold Air Intake?

    Hey can you get it chrome plated?? I have a mystic, but I don't really want it painted the same color as my car. I want the bling as well as the functionality. :D

    Magnapacks or Stingers--which is loudest?

    I actually ordered the SLP LM1 catback last night!!! I can't wait to get it!!! I think I'll just leave the stock mid in there until I hear how it sounds. I have a feeling it'll be loud enough as is. :D Cindy

    Magnapacks or Stingers--which is loudest?

    Man you all seem to have the exact opposite opinion from the folks at svtperformance. :lol: ALOT of guys over there are running o/r x and h pipes with Stingers. :) Just personal preference, I guess. I really like loud...but I don't care for raspy so much...a little is okay, though. That's why...

    Magnapacks or Stingers--which is loudest?

    Oh, I didn't realize that! :shock: Matters not, as I'm leaning towards SLP. No O/R X or H here, though! IF I swap out the mid, it'll be for a high flow version. I just can't justify the Stingers' price! $700!! :jaw: Thanks! Cindy

    Magnapacks or Stingers--which is loudest?

    I really can't decide between these two systems. I had the packs on my '96 GT with a catted x-pipe and it wasn't quite as loud as I wanted. I don't really want to remove the stock h on the Cobra. Are the Stingers louder than the Packs? I heard a sound clip online of the Stingers with a factory...

    Daily Drivers?

    At participating Ford dealers, yes. I don't think my local dealer offers this, because they asked if I needed a shuttle service. I didn't think it was worth asking after that. :lol:

    Daily Drivers?

    Well...I just bought mine a month ago, and it's already made its first visit to the service dept at my local Ford dealer. What was the problem? TOB and tranny case...and a minor recall issue. I, too, use it as my daily driver, and so far I've had to pay almost $300 in rental car fees. Thankfully...

    How much drop should I expect?

    TtT!!!! Since I posted this, I'm feeling quite comfortable about my choice of springs. However, people are saying that the C's yield the same drop as the B's. When I put the C's in my car, the rear was VERY high! It was so high, in fact, that I resorted to cutting one and a half coils from...

    How much drop should I expect?

    I decided on B-springs for my '96 GT. It currrently has C-springs, with one and a half coils cut from the rear. I don't know if this killed the rears, but now my car bottoms out...I guess, but it makes a loud bang sound over bumps. Recently I put KYB struts in the front, and just last week...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Advice on rear bottoming out with cut c-springs

    Hmm...you know I did think about that, but I would have thought the mechanic would have noticed that the springs weren't sitting quite right yesterday when they replaced the shocks! Today when they jacked up the car, they showed my husband how the differential could be moved about half an inch...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Advice on rear bottoming out with cut c-springs

    Thanks, Grits! No, I don't feel good about selling the car like it is. Already replaced the shocks, though, so only need the springs. :) But I'm concerned about the bushings. That grease monkey yesterday told us they were rubber. I know I had urethane put in...but maybe for some reason my...

    PLEASE HELP!!! Advice on rear bottoming out with cut c-springs

    It seems my ghetto rigged suspension has caught up with me...after four years. Perhaps it caught up much earlier, I just didn't notice it on nice smooth American asphalt, but here in Sweden (imported my '96 two months ago), land of dirt roads, pot holes, ridges and craters, the aging suspension...

    Cobra, Saleen or Roush? Help me decide!

    Oh I see... The age old :bang: situation. :) That does suck though to sink thousands into a car you think is the biggest and baddest. Well, that is why I don't plan on making that mistake. The Cobra is the clear choice. Now I only have to pick a color!!:)

    Cobra, Saleen or Roush? Help me decide!

    The only thing that worries me is the age of the car. It's only one year newer than my GT...:shrug: At least an '04 still has some warranty left over...and I was just looking forward to having a newer car, you know? I've been driving my '96 for seven years! But that '97 is nice...:hail2: LOL...

    Cobra, Saleen or Roush? Help me decide!

    I might agree, if it weren't for the ugly horizontal slits in the rear bumper of the Roush/GT's! :barf: Never liked that!

    Cobra, Saleen or Roush? Help me decide!

    I would jump on one in a second! :hail2: However, as you so wisely pointed out, they are rare. Was there an '04 model? Who am I kidding? I could never afford one anyway! *smacks self*
