Here are some pics of my 2002 Mustang GT. It has 25.8K miles on it as of now, but look at my mod list and tell me if you think i could get around 15K for her. Thanks

25.8k miles? that alone with ur year should be around if not more.

Your next mod should be lowering springs for sure.

very nice car, i like the day time pic, i photoshoped one of them a little just to see what i could do with it in terms of light......

[03Stang]

vantage he is not trying to mod, he is looking to see how much he can get from his car w/ them mods.

[MattKelley02GT]

Well everyone that looks at my car, and i mean everyone says that i should get some lowering springs. Do you guys really think that i need them that bad, and do you think that it would make my car look that much better? And thanks for the photoshop carguy, i wish i had it.

Yeah, you really should drop it, makes a big difference IMO.

i agree, look at my website page, my car i think is same color as yours (LASER RED) and should give you a idea, i have the FRPP C springs....

I researched the whole CC plates things before hand, and the frpp c's do not need to get CCs i asked around alot of people htat had them and there alignment didn really change much after the drop. I really love them, they give the car an agressive look.

general rule of thumb is no CCs needed (maybe recommended) if you drop no more than 1.5" (frpp states 1.25 front and .75 rear its more like 1.5 front and 1.0 rear.)

The performance did get better but i dont know how much because i added subframe connectors/rear lower control arms and the springs all in short time (lca and springs ) same time lol....

I attached a pic of the SFC,Springs, and a before and after shot.

[carguy1985]

and the lower control arms.

Well i know this is kinda weird, but i actually have had people say that they don't like stangs lowered because when they get lowered, it takes away from the older mustang (muscle car) look.

hehe thats fine thats why they made colors, so people can pick from them.....

But in my own opinion.... the FRPP C Springs are actually the best lowering springs, they lower front a little more than the back so when you look at the car from the rear and especially when you got some wide 275/40 + sized tires, the car looks so mean =)

xxkazp3rxx had the steeda sports and his was more of an all around drop, it looked good, but i like the way mine dropped better.

ill tell him to come post some pics of his car.

Fyi.. I had a 2004 with low 20k miles on it.. full bolt ons, inc gears, with a tuner, and the suspension and got 16k for it and felt lucky. You'll get around 13 for your 02' sorry if i burst your bubble... but it is, what it is... Would someone rather spend 15k on a 01' Cobra with good milage? or 15 on your 02 with good miles.. seriously...

[MattKelley02GT]

I would love to see a 01 cobra with 25K miles for only 15K. Maybe like 17K minimum.
