Looks like they got everything fitted very well. Congrats man!
But, like I've said watch those rocker panels, they
will be the first to crunch. Speed bumps are your enemy ;-)

I'm not sure about the C4 but the C5 has people selling skid rails that
fasten out of sight along side the rockers to protect them. Might want to
look into some protection like that for your investment.

I know it doesn't look it, but the side and front are right at stock height.
The two things that I need to watch out for are the front juts way out there
ahead of the bumper, and the two outside verticle fins in the rear are way
low, but once I replaced that broken rear spring I have plenty of clearance.
The side pieces make it really wide, now I have to step over a ledge AND
climb over a rail to get in there (obstacle course lol).  We've had alot of
rain here in VA lately and at about 45 mph on a wet road you can see the
spray behind you swirling into a couple counter rotating vortexes, really
cool effect.  And at highway speeds you really notice it, hard to explain
but it kind of sucks the car down to the road, with alot less wind noise,
plus I've been getting about 2 mpg better gas mileage, didn't expect that
one.  So I guess I only need to drive it for 100,000 more miles for the kit
to pay for itself right??  hahahahaa.
