Default Suspension Screwed Up?

What's up guys. A couple weeks ago I have been having some serious suspension problems since I installed some new toys. I put on some Eibach lowering springs 2" drop sportline. I had them installed by some guys at a shop. I noticed the drop went very quickly in the back, you can tell it's lowered. The front went nowhere, after almost 2 months and still no drop. I had some new tokico shocks and struts put on after that hoping it would help out alittle. Now my rear end bottoms out everywhere and just tears up the road. Only bottoms out in the rear cause it dropped down. I was told maybe the wrong springs were in the wrong place or maybe upside, i've heard alot of things, what you guys think is wrong?

Well if the front springs arent in the a-arm perch right it will sit higher, also the spring isolators add about 1/4 inch to the height each - I doubt they installed the front and rear backwards - while its possible it would take a true idiot to do it.

I suppose so. But I just can't figure why the rear is slammin the pavement so bad. I mean I have to be barely rollin over a small bump not to slam the ground. It's like the car actually had better handling with my stock shocks and stuff. Any suggestions? I gotta get this thing fixed.
