It looks good but def needs to be lowered. Eibach's would make it look amazing but might sacrifice the handling a tad.

So, you can:
1. Put the Eibachs on
2. Sell em and get a dif spring like Swift that doesn't drop it as much but handles very well
3. Or sell em and get coilovers.

I didn't put leaving it at stock height because it doesn't look as good that way.

I personally like the stock height! No more angling around speed bumps and police won't look twice! Once those snow tires go on, the evo keeps on going while others are garaged!
