I was at the track this weekend. There were a ton of other mustangs out there friday. I thought my car looked fine with the drop, but after seeing other stangs out there with even a lower drop, they looked WAY better. I did a rear seat delete and dont have the spare and tools in the trunk anymore and i think the weight drop in the rear popped up the rear end back to the 4x4 look. It doesnt look like the car is lowered and i want it a bit lower. I was thinking about doing H&R supersports but want to see what everybody else has done and if it would be a noticable difference from what we have now.

Oh forgot to add that this clears "Most" parking lot bumpers and curbs by 1 inch. You still have to be careful on steep driveways and non-standard curbs/bumpers.

Yea you are "Saleen" Stock... which is Lowered from GT stock. So you actually are already "lowered" I think Saleen's Racecraft springs are 1.5 drop or so.
