Does anybody have any pics of their lowered 94-98 cobra convertibles/coupes and what springs and how much of a drop do you have?

How did you get it to lower 2 1/4" over the 1.25" that is quoted by H & R? Would those springs be really harsh for a daily driver?

I have Suspension Techniques springs up front and Ford C springs in the rear.
it's about 1.75" lower up front and just over 1" out back.
