Hey their Angel,

A little altitiude adjustment is always a good thing!

If ya really wanna go all the way down, you got a couple of choices.

Option 1:
A company named Goldline makes a set of springs called Super Slammers which will give your ride a 2.75/3.25 drop, and will get the front to sit alright, but the back which is supposed to level with the kit actually leaves the back end still sitting 2" too high for me.
Cost $250 - $300 ballpark



Option 2:
Because I didn't like the Goldline Kit being too high in the back, and instead wanted to be nice and level, the way a PT should sit IMHO, I made a few full custom sets which give the PT a full 3"/5" drop which sits nice and level at 4" all the way around, and has a close stance to air ride.
$350 for springs
$158.95 Powder Coated any color you want
Plus Shipping
Ballpark $500 to your doorstep



Option 3:
Air Ride, which is nice, but expensive.
$1700-$2000+ for the kit
Plus Install


And then if you really want to get your ride grounded, this is my next step one of these days.



Anyways, that is the basic idea. Go easy, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me anytime.

Candyman

sweetest_gurl, if you are wanting your car to sit as low as it is in you photoshop pic, it will not only require bags or hydros it will require some extensive fab work. You can get the car down nice without it just don't expect it to be that low just bolting some parts on.

I'm not wanting it that low. It was just an idea.
