Thoughts on my Drop?

Hey guys,

My car is currently at IND where they finished installing my KW HAS kit today. What do you guys think? Does the front seem disproportionately low relative to the back?

I am inclined to have them raise the front slightly, but not certain. Thoughts?

Cheers,

Rob

This photo shows it better. It no longer has the drastic rake angle

Clearly the problem is the rear is too high!

Front looks great.
