How do I make my car lower?
I have TEIN springs in installed now. Only one inch drop. The front looks a bit higher than the back and it's driving me crazy 
. How can I lower the front about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch? Would I have to cut the springs?

You cannot do it without Coilovers... The thing is that Acura give the Front Endwell a Higher Stance than Rear (IMO to give more Suspension Travel to the Tire).
Dont Cut/Hear Springs you will never Dial the Exact spec for both L/R.

^^ Exactly. The wheel gaps may not be the same, but the car should still be level, or close enough. If you want no gaps all around, invest in some coilovers. Cuttings springs is a very poor idea.
Just as well, how long have you had the springs in the car? If they are new, give them some time to settle. If not, start saving up.

its possible to install the front springs on rear,,makes car sit funny
ck teins website for height it expects the car to sit when done
contact mrheeltoe or excelerate- both suspension gurus
can tell you where the id part# is stamped on the spring--look up whats going on from there
Are they real tein?,,,there were some fakes on ebay for a while
for those on tein coilovers -the spring perch height setting they suggest results in lower back end
I raised it 1/2 inch to get better tire/fender edge clearance,, it looks slick nose down
ziners notice that right away at meets,,wow --that looks good~
