Hey everybody. I noticed that the newer Cobra's have a noticably different stance than the GT. I just got an 03 GT and I was thinking about lowering it anyway. Any ideas on what I'd have to do to make it sit like a Cobra?

The Cobra sits a bit lower than a GT, but a lot of the difference in looks is due to the side skirts.

Not only the sideskirts, but the front bumper and rear exhaust also (hangs under the rear instead of aboe so it makes the whole car look lower to the ground from the back).

Front bumper, side skirts, plus wider tires makes the stance more aggressive looking. Other subtle changes including a Cobra or Saleen spoiler gives the illusion the rear is lower and wider.

That's a good start. H&R SS would be even better if you want it close to being slammed yet still able to drive on most roads.
