Eibach pro kit

I ust installed mine and it took me and my father about 2 hours to get the job done. I put the car down and the rear was definitely lower than before, but the frnt almost looked higher than it used to be. Now, i have heard that they drop more and more in about a months time. Is this true? Should i expect my car to drop down some more? Also, for those of you that have cars that did drop more, how much more did it drop and post pics or send them to me.
thanks alot

Check and make sure you put the springs in right side up. I used the pro-kit and my buddy liked the way my car looked so he bought the same kit. When he got his the lettering on the springs was upside down and he assumed that was the way they went and installed them like that. He freaked out when he let the car on the ground,it was just like you said yours were. He called me over to look at it and thats when I learned they were upside down.

one side of the springs have a flat spot on them. Should the flat spot be facing up or down?

Flat side goes on top in the case of Moog and Ground Control springs, can't imagine Eibach would be any different. Make sure you tape the rubber isolator to the spring so it stays in place during installation.
