So Todras... is that how you got over 19,000 posts? Just posting things like that?
he asked me if I was planning to put the SVT kit on my Contour at SZ and I said I was sourcing the parts, I am leaving my car the stock Medium Steel Blue Metallic so it will look something like this:
but with no vynl flames and I have FSVT wheels

No need for that. I was just asking a question. It was sincere only because I do not see how somebody could have that many posts, my bad.

BrApple...What If You Opened The Sunroof And Let The Corner Of The Rear Bumper Catch Some Air??? I Had To Do That With Mine, Although It Was In A Focus...I'm Not Sure If You Will Have Enough Clearance To Let It Sit On Its Butt Without Hitting The Bottom Of The Decklid.

I interpreted it as sarcastic...drop it & get your own thread.

SVT front is doable because it has much more flex to it. The SVT rear has the bumper brace on it so not nearly as much play. The only way to transport both would be to have parts of them hanging out of the trunk, which would be ok for a short trip but not entirely safe for long trip/highway speeds.
that still makes me wonder if it would fit with the front seat layed all the way back

The rear seats don't fold down flat, so maybe removing the backs to the seats will give enough space to fit both.
just have to remove the seat bottem to get the seat backs to lay flat.

True, but I think it would be very difficult to get the seatbelts back into the holes with the backing still installed. They will leave you little to no room to squeeze your hands under there I would think.

It's not too bad at all. A bit of a PITA but doable. Done it a few times for fuel pump R&R.

If you're going to remove seats, might as well take out the passenger's altogether too. I'm not sure if the tunnel was high enough to let the bumper sit normal, I know when it was turned face down, the sides hit the top of the decklid. If it will fit normal, you can probably sandwich the front [in front of] the rear & slide them towards the front of the car w/ the seats removed.
