Headlights not leveling?

I noticed when my car was parked next to Bassn_07 (who has his car lowered the exact same way and has the same headlights) that I had a 7 foot dark spot of illumination in front of the bumper compared to his. When I took it into MB to see if they were self leveling lights I was told yes but because the car is lowered they are adjusting themselves to point upwards. If the car is lowered shouldn't the lights still remain level? Besides the obvious fix has anyone had this issue or know of a solution?

My self leveling used to fail due to how low my car was. The self leveling system somehow is related to the rear link I was told. I originally had my car lowered the "mickey mouse" way and this caused the error. Once I went to the Kleeman unit I was fine.

I have the links but wouldn't the car still self level itself at the adjusted hieght or no? It's not a big issue right now I'm just being cheap and putting the money into go fast mods first until I get an ELM. Run around with Bassn_07 and it gets old seeing how fast you can be haha damn you Alan!
