Withough people in the back, I can barely get 1 finger in the gap in the rear...and I have skinny fingers.

I know! I hate it too and will take it off eventually. I bought the car with the 400 badge on it.
Time to shave those fenders! Glad to hear the 400 badge wasn't your idea, you've got a clean car and that detracts from it IMO. Now get it off there!

I agree. Just go badgeless, ASAP.

Otherwise, the car looks fine. It will look much better with a subtle drop though, doesn't even have to be that aggressive. And if you add a TTE lip to finish off the front, you'd be done.

Lol, what do you mean subtle drop? It's dropped already. I can barely get 1 finger in the gap, with the joint of my finger slidding between the tire and wheel well. I'm a slender guy, so my fingers are skinny. DF210 drop on 20s sounds subtle to me. Anything more than that would be aggresive in my opinion.

Silly question, but I'm curious, what do you guys think about the rims? Maybe on a scale from 1-10.
