had a nice day over last weekend that I headed up to the parents house and decided to do some cleaning of the SVT, I had done some new mods prior to spring zing, but only really showed up for a day and never really showed them off, so here is what I have taken care of...

new suspension went with Eibach springs, new struts and strut mounts, did some new mesh up front which many have already seen, and I had front ring professionally sprayed with a Dupont chromabase and chromaclear. I used to have a painted ring but the last guy that owned the car rattle canned it really quick, so it pealed and flaked away really quick, this one looks perfect after about 2 weeks with a bunch of highway driving :cool:

I haven't posted any pics in while so I thought I would throw a couple up there, thanks for looking :cool:

I left it up for like 2 days....

I got a couple of unhappy people driving near me :D
 
when i park mine next to jareds the top of my mirror is even with his bottom. he drives his much more though so being that low probably wouldnt be great for him. the stance on his car is nice it looks real good now:cool:
 
yep. not much wheel gap there. that's key. i daily drive mine for now so i agree, going too low will destroy it. plus my mach1 lip is already about 3" off the ground. if i go lower, it'll come off.

Would love it lower, but im extremely careful with it is as is, and I have put about 20K miles on it since I got it in february of 2007 :shocked:

10K a year is a lot for a college student.
 
lol .. I think it's too low. Can't say how much happier I was raising my car from the Eibachs.

Car looks good otherwise. :laugh:
