Bodykit Scraping


I was looking at getting a bodykit for my 02' stang and was wondering if im going to have a lot of problems with the front bumper scraping. I was looking at the saleen and diablo and probably wont get one if im going to have to worry about it scraping every time i hit a bump. If anyone has eather of these and could tell me about them it would be appreciated.

Gracias.

I had the saleen kit on my last stang with Eibach springs. I never scraped it but was always very careful of where i took the car. STAY AWAY FROM BIG SPEED BUMPS and you should be ok.

Saleen kits are hardly rice.

And they don't come down much lower than the standard GT bumper.

You would be alright.

If you were to put lowering springs AND a saleen front on, than you would be risking it.

just be carefull puling into steep driveways.
