Default How low can I go? currently at 26 1/8" up front

Hello all,
So I just finished the install of my QA1 proactive system and other suspensiongear(k-member, tubular control arms, coilovers w/ struts, CC plates,shocks, roushrear springs, rear LCA, 18" rims and brakes). My question is how low can drop the front? The rear currently sits about an 1 1/4" lower than stock and I currently have my front sitting at 26 1/8" from the center of the finder to the ground. Can I drop it any more or is this safe since the coilovers have not had the chance to break in yet?

Put 2x4's on either side of the lift arms to act as a small ramp, thats what I have to do.
