Looks lower to me. What springs did you buy? Low or super lows? Part numbers would be good if you know them.

17s won't make it lower bro, they will actually make it higher :P I'm just running standard lows, just look at it this way, when I went cruising with kranz and Pedro, they had to slow right down to like 10kmph to clear a speed bump near goodna, I climbed that thing like a mother fucker ^_^

They look the same to me.  17s will make all the difference.
The bumper makes a huge difference though, looks good.

the thing you have to keep in mind is if you're replacing stock springs, they would have sagged over the years, when installing kind lows, they're stiffer, so the car won't settle much beyond what it does when you drop it on the ground again. they're lower than stock, but stock brand new. and only just. lows are only meant to be 15-20mm lower max.
