kSPORT Ingalls A Arm adjustable ball joint installed.. Now questions

I installed ksport coilovers and ingalls A arm with adjustable ball joint camber kit.
Now after lowering the car low,maybe a one finger gap,one finger would be the pinky..

I jsut got an alignent and now im still getting contact with the top of the a arm and the wheel well. Now i understand something has to bottom out because the ksports are defiantly not gunna bottom out. But my question is is this how its supposed to be? a arms hittin top of wheel well?

Im used to the strut spring combo where the strut would bottom out before anything else.

Now im set on 4 full turns from soft so im rollin pretty stiff in the front and 2 full turns from soft in the rear.
Anybody encounter this problem and any solving of it?

yea the front. the top of the a arm hits th ewheel well. its not a good thing. a bad bump somthing has to give and i hope it wont be the a arm. i was thinkin of install a really big bumpstop on the strut shaft which in return the strut will bottom out on th ebumpstop prior to the a arm hitting the wheel well.

I cant beleive after spending a grand on suspension i have to deal with metal on metal interference. they shud have a urathean cover for the a arm or somthing.
At least its not my install work that is wrong so.

If anybody else has any input please advise...
i will update if i go forth with any bumsptop application
