i am trying to turn it in to my calibra as i have 3 kids now and there is only two seats in the back

So a sports exhaust, with all the "sport" features taken out then?

[steve_earwig]

Chrome tail pipe?

Mr Doherty's are DIY, he's done a How-To so have a search.

I dunno, all this talk of lowering and mine's low enough already given the state of the roads. Now, if someone has a way of raising it...

[HimBigChief]

cool thank you, nice and low...just as i like it

i am just trying to decide wether or not i should tint the windows....oh well springs, wheels, and exhaust first...and then i will photoshop it to see if i like the tinted look

[STALLED]

How wide are those wheels and what offset are they? ; )

[HimBigChief]

7" wide I think. If not, then they're 7.5", no wider than that. They're Ford fitment, so ET38 or so, but I'm running 20mm spacers and longer bolts, so they're now ET18 or thereabouts. Either way, they fit properly and don't catch anywhere, although I've not had a car full with them on.

ford wheels fit the 406 do they?

[mandelbug]

With spacers they do, I have a set of 18's from my Focus that I am seriously tempted to fit to the 406 after I couldn't sell them
