2" drop spindles too much?

I was looking to lower the front end of my Malibu and was wondering if anyone had any pics of their cars with a set of drop spindles on the front? I have a set of 3 way adjustable drag shocks that I haven't installed yet, but I didn't know if that would drop it low enough? :-k
Would a 2" drop and aftermarket shocks be an overkill?


Thanks for any input!

Heck yea Billy. That's pretty sweet looking!
So is the rear been dropped or is it stock ride height?
