No offence taken, I should have said the rear end got a little squirrelly, totally missed that one. lol

Guys at the dealership couldn't believe I drove the car yesterday in the pouring rain, oil line recall scheduled this morning. And theres snow on the ground.

Ah well, its not made out of sugar, and I short shifted a lot and actually used the "Weather" mode setting.

Bump on this thread, my lowering springs have been ordered, expected release in about three weeks. I've seen pics on a US forum, as usual, love the look of the Ford Performance gear.

Front springs are identical to the GT350R, same coils and diameter, rear springs are side specific, FP springs are slightly smaller diameter than the R springs, but appears to be another coil.

Let me see if I can scam a pic from the other forum....

Front springs, GT350R in black, Ford Performance in blue.

Still debating the rear seat delete, that will likely be a July project.

It's going to be a bitch to get in the wheel wells to wax those, they look too nice not too.

Well, lowering springs are finally here, showed up yesterday, probably schedule the install for next week, after I throw a couple of coats of wax on them prior to installation. lol

The more I look at the gap between the fender and the tire, the more I think this will be a good idea...stay tuned.
