GBS rules are for the body itself. There are other rules in regards to the size of the wheel cut outs. But those are the drivers responsibility to cut them correctly. There is no ROAR rule for body height to ground from the lower edge for the sides or front. Only from the rear. But that is with a 20mm block under the chassis. The trim lines are merely guidelines. To required under the rules.
