DONT DO IT!!!! the stock gt springs will make your car sit about 2-3 inches higher in the front than thefactory v6 springs. add that to the back getting lowered about an inch, and your nose looks like its taking off. i know because i did that exact same thing, and it looks like crap. i have monroe sensatrac shocks and struts with them, and the ride is good, i would not recommend it. you dont really need to dp them, your stockers will work fine. just know the ride will be stiffer whether you replace them or not, but the look is the worst! sorry for the length, just trying to warn you away.
