Looks perfect


You'll be dealing with camber issues when you go much below a 2-finger gap but you should have decent tire wear at that height - worse than stock but shouldn't be too bad.
Don't forget to get an alignment when you've decided on the ride height.

^^

People are always going to say 'drop that **** more y0zzz..., etc'

There are many varibles, though do what is pratical for you location, driving patterns/habbits. You have a kit and I think your drop is perfect.

For me, I just have painted sides/rear/type-s front lip, not gap all around. I really like being low. I dont have to worry about cracking a kit when I come accross 2-6" dips in the road that you cant avioid.

i think its fine..especially with fiberglass...the lower you are the more chips your gonna get in your front bumper..also try to stay away from those big rigs...they tend to throw up lots of rocks from the road on the freeways..

Looks like a perfect drop. I would rather have a smidgen of wheel gap and not scrape at all then try to be cool and "slammed" and hit everything on the road, especially with you because of your fiberglass front bumper.
