Ok...its time for me to do a lil suspension work Ive decided. I only have around $500 to work with,so my options are very limited right now. I am looking into springs and C/C plates,and running the stock shocks. I keep hearing different oppinions from people. Some say that I do not need CC plates if I get an alignment as soon as the springs are on. I am not sure what brand I want to go with,but I need a good size drop,as the stock height SUCKS. I noticed that one of the members on here,with the silver 01 Cobra,has HnR springs,and it looks to be the perfect height for me. Would I be able to run these springs without CC plates and shocks? HELP,Im sick of 4 wheeling around. ![[BS flag]](graemlins/bs_flag.gif)

So should I just get the springs installed,and have it aligned? If it doesnt align right,order the CC plates? Will it fuck my car up permanently if I dont put the plates on right away,but in like a month or two? ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

most cars that are lowered by the factory do not have CC plates....i.e. Saleens and Roush's

Get your springs and get front struts, say KYB's, there not very expensive, get an alignment and I think you will be under your mark. Plates are nice but not a must, at least for now.
