On the '09, there was a 1/2 inch more space, or more.

The front ends seemed to be the same.

Same boat here - as I did make a deal to trade in my '06 for an '09. I'd like to lower the new car slightly but don't want to spend all the money and hate the ride.
i am wondering the same also. i was looking into dropping a 09 FG2 with springs, but am looking to get a even ride height.

anybody got some 09 coupe pics dropped on springs?

*edit* found this link with a 09 fg2 on sportlines
2009 PMM FG2 - cAPS
