Default Camaro pics w/DMS springs, pls..

Need pics of camaros with DMS springs. Would like to check out the height + all around views and hopefully it's not too low. Had sportlines and they are freakin way too low. What are ya's opinion on them? Thanks guys

2" springs i believe. im not sold on them and am on the fence as far as changing, probably will get a rear and that will raise it enough for me as i've learned to drive careful or my longtubes/undercarriage will hate me.

i dont drive up steep inclines. i creep over speedbumps and avoid a lot of them, my longtubes love me for that reason.

Scape??? I'm still getting used to the lowering so...every other driveway. You have to creep at an angle to scrape the least or to avoid scraping. Only the "nose" part scapes. As far as speed bumps are concerned, I also take them slow or avoid them whenever possible.
