Default Do BMR subframe connectors hang too low?

I might pic up a set of BMR SFCs. I had edelbrock on my old Camaro and you could barely even see those and thats what I prefer. Anyone have any pics of the BMRs from the side? Thanks. Heres my edelbrock ones for reference, you can not even tell they are there.

Tubular? The only part of mine you can see where they connect with the LCAs, which I use as jacking points. The rest tucks up out of site.

i think the older version of the squared tubing hung lower, but i think they redesigned to tuck up closer to the body... or just get em in black

Honestly I have never seen anyone have any issue with ground clearance using our BMR subframe connectors. The boxed subframes hang a little lower than the rocker but you will be perfectly fine installing them on your vehicle.

If you don't want to see the SFC at all, I would go with the tubular.

i have the boxed bmr's on my trans am and you can see them from the side at a distance but they are red on a black car. If you dont want to see them at all then get the tubular style ones, they tuck up really good. I would recommend getting the bolt in style and just welding then on later.

I just installed a set of the BMR boxed subframe connectors and it fit perfect. Nice quality and finish. My car is also lowered with BMR springs and i tried to see if you can see the BMR subframes from the side and you can barely see. Then again i did purchase black subframes as well.
