For the street or are you going to track your car ?

If it's to get a certain "look" for the street, you may end up with a bit of damage....

You could "slam" it, but with no benefit to street performance.
Always potential damage on speed bumps, dips, pot holes, curbs, inclined driveways, parking lot bumpers and so many more things you run across in daily driving...

Or, you can lower it with a set of springs and have no problems what so ever.

Is the factory standard front height supposed to be higher than the rear? I know it helps for curbs and driveways/etc, but mine probably needs to drop another 3-5mm in the front. The rear looks great.

I need to see if I can measure the adjusting ring height compared to factory settings (front is supposed to be 1.1 inch from the adjusting ring to the mark).

No, it's not suppose to be higher than the rear. Driver side front is a touch higher, but the other 3 corners are the same. Most likely it's just an optical illusion because of the fender flares. When ride height is changed and the car is getting properly aligned, the shop has either someone sitting in the driver seat or putting some weight there instead while everything is getting adjusted.
