Anyone got pics of LS430 on Eibach or Tanabe lowering springs?

Like Swagga82 said, the DF is only suppose to lower the back an additional 0.2".
I like the rear to be slightly higher to compensate for the extra weight in the back of the UL. Plus I want the softer spring rate of the NF.
I do like it a tad lower on the front, I wonder what the car looks like with stock springs and with just the You Zealand SS kit. The SS kit suppose to drop the car 30mm = 1.2".

just messing with you. I googled eibach Ls430 and came up with this:
interesting that this is described for the "exec"(?-we're sure they meant the ultra) air suspension.

here's another angle. i'll have to look again tomorrow and see how the drop looks. maybe i can actually take a pic with good lighting to show the drops. 
i don't have much cargo in the trunk...and only a 3yr old kiddo in the back seat.
ride quality changed (aka body roll much decreased) and is now a bit harsher, but not bad at all. my previous car was a tricked out VW passat that i had Eibach's on (about 1.5" drop) and that rode a lot stiffer. it kinda feels like you're in more control vs the lofty boat type feel.
