Looks awesome with the new rims, and as you've heard many times before, your car should be lowered.

Yeah I have the Ford "C"'s and they didn't lower the car much at all. I had them on for about 6 weeks to let'em settle and it only came down a hair over an inch in the front and about 1/2" in the back. I chopped about 1.5 coils off the front and 2 off the back to bring it down to where I wanted. Best estimate is about 2.5 inches lower in the front and about 1.5 in the back. (back sits a little lower from factory) I NEED CC plates and will be getting some soon. My x-pipe is the only thing that bottoms out occaisonaly but only because it sits 2 inches lower than the factory piping cause of where it crosses over under the body of the trans. Prepare yourself for a very stiff ride if you chop the "c" 's. The motorsport "F" 's are a nice set to look at,they don't lower the car any more but they are only slightly stiffer than stock. You could trim 1/2 a coil front and back and have a nice riding car with about 1.5 inches of drop.

I'll keep that in mind! lol! But ya I'm really happy with the car so far! And we still need to all meet up so you guys can see the car in person!!! Is anyone else coming to the Mustang thing on Saturday at Bennett? They said I should bring my car by. I guess they are going have a bunch of stangs there to celebrate "Mustang Week" so I think I'll have my car there for most of the day.

Did you put that 40th Anniversary badge in the center console? That looks pretty cool.

Ya, I did. That badge comes on the actual 40th Anniversary cars and I was like I want that!! So the Ford guys checked in the computer and I think it was like $12 or something! So I said get me one! I really like too! It's just kinda a little extra thing that adds to the looks!
