post up pix of your lowered protege!!!!

sure you have the springs in the right places?

and you have a couple options:

cut springs (ghetto and not a good plan)
swap springs to something better

i dont think i can cut the lowered springs, can i? i think its flat on top and bottom...i cant remember, one of my techs put it in for me.
 
I'm just gonna throw out there that imageshack sucks, but honestly.. the height looks fine to me. fender gaps look even. if you want the rear of the car to look lower I suggest picking up an MSP or MP3 rear lip.

i mean, it looks alot worse in person,. and im not liking the qt to tire gap in the rear, so the spoiler wouldnt help what im looking for. but to everyone who responded, thanks for your input. i'll be around this forum to stay.

I didn't say anything about a spoiler.
 
I was thinking the same... I think he meant rear lip spoiler?
Regardless, I'm talking about the part that EVERY protege sedan should have... a lip on the bottom of the rear bumper, to make it look like its ass end ISN'T 4' up in the air, even when its dumped on coilovers.
