Are you kiddin' me? Eibach makes a Pro Kit for your car w/a 1.2" drop front/rear. If that's not enough, just lop off a 3/4 of a coil on the front and change the pads to a #1 front and rear to achieve that look you're going for. Look around the 'net, you'll be able to find some answers to your question. Here's a link to start you out with:

Good luck and happy modding!

DO NOT BUY THOSE SPRINGS. They will not work on 4matics. notice how the part numbers are the same for 4matic as they are for the 2wd versions. HAHA They will not work.
