TTT I wanna see too 
Somone has to have a pic....I want to drop my car just like an inch, but I'm worried about the feathering...I'm sure the dealer won't cover it if you've changed ur suspension..

dropped down on HKS LS+ coilovers....not sure on how much the drop is but no feathering issues as a result. i recently lowered the rear but have not had the car re-aligned so i am not sure if i am within specs and need a camber kit. i don't have a camber kit for the rear or the front but i plan on this in the future. when i originally had the car dropped the front was lower than the back so thats why i just recently lowered the rear. i has been about 7k miles and no feathering and i had the front lowered about 1/2". i am probably out of spec on the rear now but i will install a camber kit and realign when i get new tires....which should be soon. i like to drift which tends to wear out your tires much faster! also, i don't think i had any feathering issues when i bought the car because i watched for tire wear and i was good for about 3k before i installed the coilovers.

I'll try to take some pictures tomorrow of mine, it's lowered, I think about an inch and a half or two inches! I'm not exactly sure, I bought the car that way, it was done by nissan (used to be an executive car). Looks really good, but according to my friend I have a bit of negative camber. I'm thinking about replacing the springs with a Hotchkis set, which will raise the car up a little. I think it looks awfully good the way it is, but its a little hard to get over the bumps around here.

Whoops!
I forgot, I already have some pictures posted on my website. Here's what mine looks like, lowered on the stock 17s.. Its pretty low!
Not silver like you asked, but another idea of how it will look.
