I spoke with Stance-USA today and we figured out a solution to my lack of rear lowz.

They're going to exchange my current springs for shorter springs with helper springs. And that will fix my lack of low by 2 inches more adjustability

You should really install the sides youself. Its really easy. Have a friend help and its even easier. Cant say what the next step will be as of now til it happens. Dont want to jinx it

Thats what i use. I actually buy them off the fastener truck powdercoated gloss black. Saves me time painting them. Fyi the last spot closest to the quarter panel that looks like you should put a screw there, dont. There is a circular hole right behind it

cool. So if I manage not to mangle these things when I fit them, can I just use the fuel door to match the paint for the shop?

Yea fuel door is your best bet. With silver even the uv in the clear can change the tint so color could be off a tab. Oem sides and bumpers are never perfect match so having aftermarket sides not matching is not uncommon
