I have a 2004 Crown Vic and just thought I would say hello to every one and show off a little bit.This is my daily driver 18 mpg and I get a lot of thumbs ups .http://www.supermotors.net/getfile/800149/fullsize/new-pictures-black-pipes-018.jpghttp://www.supermotors.net/getfile/800146/fullsize/new-pictures-black-pipes-007.jpghttp://www.supermotors.net/getfile/800145/fullsize/new-pictures-black-pipes-011.jpghttp://www.supermotors.net/getfile/800147/fullsize/new-pictures-black-pipes-004.jpghttp://www.supermotors.net/getfile/786568/fullsize/new-car-pics-002.jpg

You need to lower it
Welcome and car looks nice going with the murdered out look. The fellowship is a lot more fun if you stop reading and start posting;). I see a center console but a shifter on the column does yours have the handling package?

I have springs front and back and I do want to lower it. I think I can cut 1/2 coil in front and maybe 1 full coil in the back. I am worried about being able to get a proper alignment after. The wheels are 18x8.5 ADR m sports with 255/45 's Goodyear eagle F-1's, I have A ford explorer console that with a little modifications fits like it was supposed to be there. I added 2 1/4 cat back with Insynerator Bullit mufflers and 22 inch tips. I'm working on the looks for now as I'm not sure how much $$$ I should investin this performance wise. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

You can pry off the tabs on the lower A arms to gain a little positive camber back after you lower, not much, but better. Oh, and welcome!

My objective is to get addco sway bars and some aftermarket control arms.The wheels and tires make a huge difference in the handling-just want more. Already replaced the rotors and went with ceramic pads. I only wish I had MORE POWER. Great forum guys- you are a good example of how it should be. thanks for letting me be a part of it!!!

nice ride, with some tinted windows it would look better.

Nice looking vic :D
I cut 1 full coil off the front and about .75 off the rear, and it's not drastic at all but definitely improves the look.
