Talking Pics of my ride dumped on B&G's - front and rear

The rear took only 1 hr to install this morning. I set it a 3 threads from the lowest setting resulting in about a 3.35" drop - according to B&G. I have the camber kit set also in the pics but not to perfection. The idea was to go as low as I can and see where I scrape. I have a Magnaflow cat-back and the midpipe only touches so far on deep dips and speed bumps.

My set-up right consists of:
B&G coilovers - not bags like someone asked me on the road.
SPC camber kit
Neuspeed front brace
Rear Upper strut brace
RSX-S Rear Sway Bar
215/45/17 Falken 451
17 x 7 Titans with +45 offset (I think)

Let me know what you think.

1st pic - not settled in....and not low enough

Thanks for the comments! So far no rubbing but the rear camber is really negative to ensure that it doesn't. I may lower the back end all the way at the end of the week as well as drop the front a lil more. I think if I drop it a lil more, I may be safe from rubbing, but my midpipe does scrape on somethings already. I just got back from taking it out and it rides really good, a lil stiff, but it handles the corners like a wrx. Oh and people stare now more than they used to.

ive been considering selling my tein ss to get the b&G's, i wanna go lower in the front and i cant! the rear is perfect right now, but the front isnt as low as the rear. i love the ride and handling of the teins, and not to sound superficial, but i like the name to cause everybody respects it, but i wanna go lower dammit!!!!
