Here are a few quick pictures I snapped in my driveway after putting on my Eibach's and grill delete. Let me know what you think.

Also, I posted this in my other suspension thread too, but I have been having MAJOR brake dust issues. I put new pads,front and back, on my car before I left for college. They squeak a little bit, which is also VERY annoying. The pads I got are Bendix Titanium Metallic II, which I thoguht were pretty good pads. Does anyone have any advice for me?

I had those pads and the brake was ok but they did squeak they are not a quiet pad. Looks good though

looks real good.:punk: the only little thing you should do is remove the horizantal plastic pieces where the foglights go, it makes it look much better.

Looking very nice.

+1 on removing the horizantal plastic pieces where the foglights go.

Yeah I will most likely do that in the near future. I also have some taillight blackouts that I am trying to decide whether or not to put on. Also, I really really want some 3.73's for it, but Ford doesnt make the gears for the v6 rear. How good quality are the Motive Performance? Also, I highly doubt I could do the install correctly without having some gear whine, and I really don't want to pay to haev them installed. What do you guys think? The spring install was extremely easy once my cousin and I got past the first wheel. We have the tools to do it too...

Don't even try doing the Gear's unless you have had ALOT of expirience doing them.Alot of thing's just need to be done by a pro,there is alot more to doing them than spring's.

Your car looks great !!. As for brake pads, use Ford OEM brake pads. They are just as good if not better and don't cost as much as most aftermarket pads. I did a search on the forum before I changed my brake pads, I was originally thinking of getting aftermarket ones, but read a couple of threads about sticking with OEMs.

Well I don't have any experience with them, but a friend of mine and his dad have done a couple of gear installs themselves, they have just never worked on a Ford.

I had 4.10's on my v6 you wont be able to do the gear install in ordered for the motive ones to fit we had to grind down the spider gear a little bit in order for it to fit in our small rear end

ended up with no wind and crazy acceleration though

def go for gears and car looks great
