Second, get an alignment done and see how far out of spec you are. You should get an alignment anyway when you switch suspension parts. It seems CLs vary greatly in whether or not they need camber kits. I needed front and back kits for mine.
Third, I would have had my Teins in on Tuesday but found out I needed the OEM isolators because Tein doesn't include any. They came in today but my tech can't do the install again until next Monday or Tuesday. Hopefully when he does I'll get a pic of a Nex SS next to a Tein.
Finally, here's how low I dropped mine originally on the Nex SS coilovers, and it could go a bunch lower (but it wouldn't be able to move cuz it would rub). Looks like the Teins might not have as much height length as the Nex, but at least you can adjust strut stiffness, which is why I upgraded to Teins:
