Just by chance is the back of the car sitting high too? Cause I know how it is with stock springs, so if there is a chance you have the front springs in the back and the back springs in the front the car won't lowered at all, it will just look stupid.

A buddy and me made that mistake once when raising his car back to stock height. Some how we lost track of the springs and swapped the rears to the front which made it super low and the back super high. Depending on the quality of the springs you installed, I'd say that may be a possibility, without the same monumental effect by buddy's civic had, but similar.
