I have a 2000 Firehawk as well..honestly I think our cars are beautiful the way they are. Plus with another 1.2 inches what type of exhaust do you have my true duals use to hit the speed bumps when I had my old set up

alright i guess thats not as bad as my setup lol. But j/w why did you get rid of the fire hawk wheels? They are pretty close to zoo wheels imo already

You could run a set of Koni SA shocks and put the put the snap ring on the lower shock grove for a .75" drop, then in the rear do the rear hose modification for a .5"-.75" drop. All this of course with the stock springs.

1-1.2 inch drop should look good
