Just some quick P&S pics when I was on break today. I'm not real happy with the drop. I'm going to give the springs a little more time to settle, but I don't think they will sink anymore.

What kind of springs? Doesn't look too much lower. Not really digging the wheels IMO

I really like that grille. Had the same design on my 05gt. Nice car

Thanks, love your Boss!

They are the Dub/Roush/Eibach springs. They are supposed to be rebranded Pro-kits, but I've only seen half the drop that was advertised so far. Which is covered up by the shorter tires, so I still have the stock wheel gap.

I knew a lot of folks wouldn't like the rims, but I wanted something with an aggressive lip and the Bullitts offered the look I was after.

Horrible wheel choice! And as far as the grille, it's not my style but I don't hate it.

But seriously, get a different set of wheels on there man. Bullitt's have long been played out by the SN-95 crowd.

What size tires ? I think that may be a lot of your problem with the look.
You need some more tire.

They came in the AM package. I really wanted 285's, but it was an extra $200 to step up. Once I wear these out I'll put 285's on it. The springs I put on it did not lower the car anywhere near as much as advertised.

I think those springs are crap and someone on eBay is making money on a scam for some branded springs.. people have been complaining about the drop they are not getting from the springs.

yeah still seems a bit high

Yeah I'm pretty bummed out by that. I'm planning on getting some H&R SS springs here pretty soon. I gotta recover from what I spent in the last month. If I hadn't bought an MGW shifter I'd have ordered them already.

Window Tint!!!.. you know how hot it gets in Texas...

Yeah I know, I need to get that done asap, cause it's going to get hot quick.
