Can I see pictures of Eibachs (both Prokit and Sportlines) dropped on 18's?

List your shock setup as well, please.

And with the prokit, are aftermarket shocks of major concern?
 
This is a picture of my car at the same height as what it was when I had the Eibach Sportline springs. My bumper was 3" off the ground in front.

BTW, for daily driving you DON'T want the Sportline springs. I had them and you scrape on everything.

Eibach Pro-Kits claim to drop your car 1.3-1.5" compared to stock. Aftermarket shocks are not a must for installing these. Having a 2G, your car is at least 6-7 years old. The stock shocks are old, might as well change them since labor-wise, it costs the same to have the springs replaced or both springs+shocks. Add the cost of alignment and it will add up if ever you find out you have a blown shock/strut one day.

I came from a 2" drop for a daily driver. You do not want the Sportlines if you do not want to scrape on everything.

For the Prokits, you do not need a camber kit which is an added $100-150 cost. You may do the rear washer DIY camber kit if you decide to.

I didn't scrape on everything when my car was recently as low as when I had the Sportline springs. But then again I did have experience from my Sportline days.
I planned out the route in my head where I wanted to go and drove over bumps at angles.
