i hear that on this forum all the time... my springs are on correct yes. you have to remember im on 18s it lifts everything else up and the angle of the pic is lookin up also when its a good side view its fine.
You don't have to worry about messing up the body lines or showing the roll. Just make sure you heat it up and roll slow. If you take your time, you can make it flat and not be able to see anything. Hell, you can even do a slight pull and have it barely noticeable Take your time or it will look like ass. I speak the truth. 
The fit looks GREAT man. I'm not a fan of springs, and I'm a firm preacher of low stance and aggressive wheels...while you can be lower and more aggressive, it just works! +rep for you!

Jeeze man, i remember the thread, nobody hated, some guys (I was one) advised against that offset. That is caring enough about a fellow member enough to save some potential grief, no way is that hate
According to my studies, you cant adjust rear camber on the GE because the spindles are welded to the torsion beam vs. bolted on like most cars including the GD. so using camber shims would be pretty much impossible.
Pretty sure I am right but feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
Anyway my compliments, it looks great. Too radical of a look to want on my car and our IL/WI roads are not the best so 18's would end up bent. But I do like it

TORK hit it on the button no rear camber for us...well not yet anyway. somebody will prob eventually figure out a way to do it. and i dont know if you seen my specs at all but the wheels are 215/35/18 with a +37 offset. also they are 7.5 wide. they are so close to rubbing the inner fender liner in the front already

From what I read so far, it should be ok. What's your thoughts on this? TIA for your input.
You won't rub with +43, unless your slammed to the ground. +37 isn't even that crazy of an offset. If he's +37, dropped, and only rubbing in the back on bumps then you'll be fine. Its just rubbing... There's people here running offsets in teens and twenties. If the rubbing REALLY bothers you just roll the lip on the inside of the fender. If you rubbed while driving normally or cruising then you have a problem.
As for the camber, your right. I forgot you couldn't mess with the rear. Looks ill be rolling the rear fenders when I get my wheels in
