#1. There is no sagging in his pic.
#2. BAT kit takes longer to settle to height, unlike GC' who slam immediatly.
#3. You are the one not giving up. Everyone in this thread has said.. "NO, they don't sag, etc etc."
 
Take dry humor much?
Well... just trying to put you in your place.  
No, you're still my buddy. Can I have some of that shiznit you are smokin?!

The BAT front springs are ALOT shorter/stiffer than the stockers, so they take awhile to settle fully. Mine looked a bit lifted in front, at first, but now it sits very nice 'n even.
I've also never heard of people complaining about back end sag on BAT springs after they've settled for awhile. Eibachs yes.

Duratex,
Those pics of the black SVT don't look like the proportion is any different than stock. Definitely not exagerated ass-sag IMHO. Maybe you aren't used to the SVT look?

UPDATE: Durate Smells  anyways, went and measured my ride height. I am measuring from the ground (level) to teh edge of teh fender. Front Driver side: 25 1/8" Front PAssenger Side: 25 1/8" Rear Drivers side: 25 5/8" Rear Passenger side: 25 5/8" There was NOTHING in my trunk or inside the car at teh time. As you can see, right now it has a very slight raked set-up. Suspension has been on the car for about 10 months.

Wow you went all that way just to prove to me that your car is one of the 9 of 10 Contours on BAT that don't sag? Why you didn't have to, really...  I do think your time is better spent getting your post count and cocky levels up though  .

Amarv asked me to measure my height since he installed his kit a few days back. The "you smell" comment was just added for drama.

I dunno... it's a toss up. Your posts per day is actually an average of 8.17 where mine is only 7.03. Think you just made Emperor. Anyways. So once again, you have been proven wrong by the performance of THEE best suspension kit for our cars. Yay BAT!!
