Maybe new springs?

Ok quick question...I just got a new exhaust and my car is ridiculously low right now...I have tokiko Gas shocks and tokiko springs...But I feel like they musth ave been cut or something because the drop is the lowest I have ever seen.(Bought the car this way) I just bought an Apexi gt spec exhaust and I know when I put that on I will be smashing it all over the place, My front bumper is maybe an inch off the ground to give you guys an Idea of how low it is...What do you suggest doing? Will simply buying something like an Eibach Pro-Kit and swapping sprinds solve this problem? Thanks for the input
 
ya if you get a lowering spring thats not for as much drop such as the prokit youll be a little bit higher. i have the sportline and i was slammed from the drop i got. i know the prokit is rated at right around an inch....but you can get more. i think my friend got about 1.5 inches out of his. do you know how much of a drop you got out of your springs?

not sure b/c I didn't put them on I bought the car like this, but I would say at least 2. A couple of my friends who are really into dsm's agree its the lowest drop they've seen. A little too low.
 
then ya prokit would def. raise you up. if you go that way just look at what they are rated at. i think the sportline is like 1.75-2 (i got more) and the prokit is like 1. you could search in the handling forums i think there is a thread for what springs lower you how much and pics to i belive
