RE: please post pics if you've installed lowering springs
Here's mine the day I picked it up. Not the greatest pictures, sorry. They are the FRPP springs (same as Eibach Pro-Kit from what I hear).

just out of curiosity.... what all is everyone doing? we all know you can buy the pro-kit for around $234, delivered. what else, besides an alignment, are you doing and how much has it cost you, total....?

To really do your rear suspension correctly with lowering springs I would recommend, in addition to whatever springs you chose, adjustable upper control arm, lower control arms, lower control arm relocation brackets, adjustable panhard bar and a set of Tokico adjustable shocks. Either CHE or BMR is a good choice.

Don't forget to trim the rear bump stops. That made a huge difference on my car. I had about 1/2 clearance, so essentially it was "bottoming out" almost constantly. That'll screw up your spring rates, that's for sure. 
I have not done the adjustable panhard bar yet. I kind of got lucky, my rear end is still pretty centered after lowering. It sticks out about1/8" farther on the driver's side.

[/align][/align]Don't you mean Sportline? There's no way that's the Pro kit. I've got the Pro kit and it doesn't sit that low. Then again, I've got 18" wheels, too. But it still seems like yours is sitting too low. The wheel/fender gap seems to small to be the Pro kit.[/align]
