Default F-sport springs and AFS

Im considering lowering the car with F-sport springs for a mild drop. From the reading I've done, I think this kit would be perfect for how I want the car to look like. I'd like to know if there's anyone who can give me feedback on if I should expect the AFS light coming on with a mild drop (and having to adjust the sensor under the car), or if this issue is more common with more aggressive lowering. Thanks

I thought the AFS light issue was just if you bump the sensor when you are installing the springs?

I never had any issue when I had H&R springs in, and I don't have any issues with my current coil overs.

You will be fine, the drop is very mild. Even if you bump it or move it its very easy to adjust

Assuming the level mechanism is not screwed up during the install, you'll be fine.
