Too skinny out back IMO. The rear wheels look a little too big too. Are they 18's?

1. Fix the dent in the drivers door
2. Ditch the shackles
3. Wider meats in the rear

Other than that, I would rock it for sure

Looks good. I think the stance would be perfect if it had wider tires out back (275 min) and if the car was a little lower; sounds like you're going to lower it though.
