Looks good, but that angle pic probably doesnt justify the drop. Take one car level

Did you do any measurements? Need to know how much the DMS springs drop for clearance issues. A side picture would be great!

Looks good!

Looks good. I love the DMS springs too, just wish the back was a tad bit lower.
