Sorry, no pic immediately available since it would have been about 5 yrs ago and probably on and old computer I don't have hooked up currently. I'll look though...

Bump - I still have these Eibach lowering springs for sale and am dropping the price to $125. USPS flat rate shipping runs about $19 to ship anywhere in the US and I'll throw it in too.
The Eibach part # is 5706.140 as mentioned in the string above and the drop is approximately 1.1" front and 0.9" rear.

and I was able to find just one picture with the Eibach lowering springs on the car... this pic shows a really view of the effective drop on the rear but since I was actually showing off my hidden-hitch setup towing the bike when I took the pic, you can't see much of the front wheel. For those of you wondering if the tongue weight of the trailer could possibly be compressing the rear springs in the image, it would have been negligible.... basically the center of gravity of the bike was dead center over the axle of the little 6' ft trailer... so much so there was virtually no tongue weight at all (5-10 lbs max)... I was constantly reminded of this on my 600 mile journey to and from Eureka Springs as the tongue chattered up and down on the ball the entire trip with every bump, incline, and tap of the accelerator.
I will say these springs really leveled out the car nicely and gave it a moderately lowered stance as compared to the factory sport springs.

I actually had these springs on H&R Cup dampers (Koni yellows) since they came with the vehicle as purchased used. I can say the ride was much more forgiving on the Eibachs than the more aggressive H&R lowering springs that were on the car as purchased. When I took the Eibachs off and changed to OEM sport springs the difference in the ride didn't seem to be nearly as drastic as I experienced changing from the H&Rs to the Eibachs.
