Here is the deal, I'm completely re-doing the suspension on the 93 mtx sho. I can't say that no expense is spared but I want to do everything right. I've since purchased complete poly busings for everything, Eibach's, Koni inserts, SS reinforced complete engine support kit "includes new subframe bushings", all new ball joints, tie rods, and I still need to pick up the new strut bearings. and the GTP rear arms.

My question is this: Since I'm going to be lowing the car with additional stiffness due to the Eibach/Koni combo, how do I "PROPERLY" align the from end of the car. The rear is going to be taken care of due to the GTP arms. I've already read about drilling and gouging, prying, poking at the adjustemtn plate for the front, but I'm a little **** about chopping into my car. Not because i'm afraid to do it, but because everything is nice, painted, mounted properly all from the factory. If I start drilling and hacking into it, then I have to look into getting the parts painted to prevent rust etc..

Is there a kit made to fix the front alignment without hacking the car apart?

Just drill out the spot welds in the alignment plates to allow them to be moved to effect a prope alignment. You may repaint them and any drill bit touches on the strut tower if you like. Living in Texas, mine were drilled out 10 years ago and have yet to display any rust.
