How is that possible after 3 days the ride height went up to 2-3 finger gap instead of 1-2 like a day ago.

Did you jack up the car during this time or do anything that might have affected them?

I finally put a rear camber kit on my car, and got an alignment yesterday. I liked the look before, since it looked about an inch lower. One side is almost tucking tire, the other is like a 1.5 finger gap. Time for new springs. I need to be slammed.

Gearbox-after an alignment everything should be perfect, even, hopefully lower. Make sure they drive your car around, make sure nothing changes, and fix it if it does.

The people who did mine are freakin awesome.

well it's after alignment, and it looks okay. Back is 2 finger gap front is 1. Although, the left and right side is a bit different height. The car does feel alot better tho after alignment.

hell yeah, my car is driving so awesome right now. I give it a couple weeks till its all out of whack again thanks to potholes. I noticed the same thing on my 01 coupe. The left side rr is higher (1.5 finger gap) right side rr is .5 finger gap. I have skinny finger though, so it isnt too big of a difference, but noticeable by the eye.
