Nice! It might be a bit too low, but the angle of the driveway makes it a bit difficult to tell.

Looks like a submarine emerging.

You will need bumpstops from the front and crank it down till level. And then you will need an alignment.

They look good low, but the rear is very low and I think needs to come up at least 1", maybe more. I have mine set so it sits higher in the rear than the front by about 1/2". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Here's my quick edit to get the wheels close to horizontal. The car now looks very level. That's fine, but I prefer just a bit of forward rake.

Sorry man but an inch down in front is probably close. The back is righteous

Take a picture on level ground.
Pretty widely agreed that nose down and low is best.
Nose up is worst.
Just sayin'
