Another thing to consider is that if you drop the front and back equal amounts you will have more gap up front due the higher wheel arches to allow the front wheels more room when turning and suspension compression. It's a common design on a lot of cars.
If you want a more "even" looking drop, leave the front on the lowest perch and put the rear on the middle perch.
I have mine on the middle in the rear, and one perch lower up front (with H&R sports) 99 sedan, pics in the link below.
Thanks for this information, it's very useful
I understand the front arches provide for more gap. This is apparent with the drop being very noticeable in the rear. I have zero gap in the rear, that's from a 3" gap with OEM parts. I can't believe it could have possibly gone so low. The car looks as if three really big peoples are sitting in the back seat
I do want a more even appearance, so I will have the mechanic raise the rear struts' perch level. If that doesn't work, I'm scrapping the whole deal and putting the original parts back. I'll have a set of barely used Konis and H&R springs available for sale on Ebay
The front has a decent appearance, the back is bad. I am taking into consideration that I still have the OEM 15" wheels on the car.
Your car has a great stance and appearance, btw
