Sorry for the very late reply. So, to give a few answers, the rear is not lowered too much, but still, it is. Today I managed to take a few pictures in a static position, just like you said, but I don't think they are too conclusive. I will try and measure the clearance on the bump stops:



The konis are brand new, out of the box, and they seem to be working good.
From what I understand, you guys think the car is riding on it's bump stops, and only going up/down on it's tires right? That could explain why this effect was a bit atenuated, after I changed the wheels/tires from 195/65R15 to 215/50/17. Lower profile - lower room to bounce around.
So I'll try and get a measurement, and maybe cut the bump stops shorter.

And for the news: I managed to get a set of 17" Porsche cup3 Turbo twists!! I'm so happy, this was the set of wheels I wanted eaven before I had the bug!!! I got them on the car, with 215's in the rear, and 205's in the front. I was pleased to realise that the 215's fit in front very well, and I could go eaven wider.

She's got the stance and looks hot!
But how does she drive in extreme circumstances?
