i really wish i could spend the money on some coilovers and get the back even lower, cos its not touching anything as it is.......just like a normal 60ml drop! there is space to go lower, or as it is will be practial for everyday but looks stupidly low! 
 
it does look lower cos front is jacked up, gonna smoke a set of lights for the photo shoot,
