Default Spring help??

Hi,

New to the forum. So I just got my 350 and I know it has after market shocks (Koni) but I can't tell if the springs are aftermarket lowering springs or stock. I just don't want to lower my car anymore if they are aftermarket cuz the manual says not to lower more than 35mm or damage may occur. Anyways, heres a picture.

Clean them up and look for any labels, logos, or numbers. I'm willing to bet they're stock.

I could be wrong. I've been wrong before.

It seems lowered but then again I feel like there's too much of a wheel gap for 18's.
Any ways, opinions?

Looks stock to me.
How much fuel in the tank for pic?
Full tank is gonna get the car down a bit.
Year&miles on the Z?
Springs are gonna weaken some on high mile cars.

look stock, aftermarket springs are usually some color, even when really dirty they still show color.
