not gonna lie...the stance looks nice...but needs more rake...rear is tucked too much...tuck the front more, raise the back some...the mustang isnt an import but to each their own...
I will agree, a nice solid flush would be ideal, but over all i am quite impressed.

I guess I'm the only one who wants coilovers but little to no drop...or just a slight (0.5") drop in the front.

Nope.

On the plus side, coilovers make it easy to adjust ride height.
So maybe they can un-break the one in the picture.

What part of this are you impressed by? Just how low it can go?

Nope. I want coilovers so I can corner balance the car and have the adjust-ability. I only plan only lowering about an inch. The "look at me my car is practically touching the ground" look is idiotic from both a visual and performance standpoint. Just my .02 though. I know people are still going to slam their cars but I am still going to call them idiots everytime, lol. :headbang:

Having what you want makes you an idiot because you don't like it. Ok, got it. Lower center of gravity is terrible for performance? When did this happen? I live in Florida now, everything is straight lines here to begin with. I like my cars to be stanced with a nice tight wheel fitment, sorry for being an idiot.

Lowering the center of gravity isn't bad for performance. Putting the suspension permanently in a state outside its normal operating range is often bad for performance. For one thing, you don't have enough camber adjustment to get it back to where it should be for proper contact patch. In addition, you will certainly end up with some unplanned rubbing/contact. Believe it or not, even race cars have suspension travel and don't have their wheels tucked completely in their fenders. The super slammed look makes the car look broken.

Bcs have top hat adjustment for camber and I'm sure someone has or soon will have a fully adjustable arm kit soon. I much prefer a more flush look, do maybe 1/2 inch higher in the back, my my cars always have supporting mods to allow what I am after. I have a 2inch drop in my current abd have perfect alignment and contact patch.

I think it was more of a testimony to how low they can potentially go.
