    got new rotors and bearings for the front end and figured it was time to finally cut the coils to get her closer to the ground. cut a little over 3/4 of a coil out of the 550lbs mustang springs i have been driving around with for a little over a month to settle down. it dropped the front end by almost 3inches it was way to high before . heres pics of before and after and my rotors tell me what yall think thanks.

    Looks great, I love a little rake on our cars. What kind of spring perches did you use ? Are they the bearing type ? If so where did you get them.
