Cool Pics: 2 Inch Lowering Kit on the Thunderbird

Got Intrax 2" Sport Lowering Kit, started to install them Sunday night after Christmas. Finished tonight at about 9:50PM. I got held up with the front because I didnt expect to have to replace the front end. I spent $250 on the springs, and another $250 for a coil compressor, new TSW Sway Bar End Links, and Upper Controll Arms. But I saved about $500 by doing it myself. The suspension is so tight, I can feel every pebble and rock in the road (I live on a dirt road).

Before:


After:



The front didnt lower as much as the rear, or it just inst as noticeable.





I got a little bored, so I painted my front emblem. It used to be chrome

Re: Pics: 2 Inch Lowering Kit on the Thunderbird

Off Topic but how did you post the pictures in your post? Are they located on a web page that you link to? I was trying to post a jpg file for someone to look at but had no luck loading it from my hard drive. You had said the lower photo was touched up in Photoshop. How about posting a photo like it of the actual finished install.

The lowering kit makes it look awsome. You just have to get some racing stripes like my car now. I might look into the lowering kit now once i get my cooling system leak and oil leak fixed. Nice work.
