Lowered 1.5 inches on H&R springs!
It'll probably will drop a little more. This was a birthday present from Andrew.
I hope this makes everyone happy, but not as much as me :)

It looks much better! Congrats!
And if I were you, i'd considering swapping out the stock struts if you didn't already do so, as the stock struts won't last as long as they should.

Nice, too much of a drop for me (anything over an inch and I'm screwed) but it looks good on yours :)

Might want to look into SVT suspension then! Its about a .75" drop all around. And half the price of an Eibach Pro-Kit or the Ford Racing kit.

Looks sweet Ash. Its about time you did that, makes the wheels look a lot better. What make are they and how much of a drop?
BTW your tires look like they could use a good cleaning :lol:

Looks good Ashley
Maybe Andrew can get you new struts, and bushings for next year. You will need them for sure once you lower it.
Well it did in my case. Bc of downtown driving I had to spend money on shocks and sturts, bushings and bunch more stuff that rattled :)
I does make the car look very nice. Love the look. I just dont love the additional cost that comes with it
Enjoy :)
