H+R Springs: Pictures Please

In my little stash of parts I have the H+R springs ready to be installed. I have been looking at the SHO and it definitely needs a drop in the rear to close the wheel gap. When it comes to the front the wheel gap really is not that big. So here are my to questions/requests:
-Please post up any pictures you have showing a side profile of your vehicle with the H+R springs installed
-Has anyone ever installed just the rear lowering springs? Is this a horrible idea?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions and pictures.
 
The front drop is less than the rear drop when you install the kit I order to keep the car level.
On my XSport the HR was like 2.3 in drop in back and 1.9 drop in front..

My dear God.... I had to go digging deep for this image.....

This was my SHO, brand new, 4 days old, and yes, I had the tint appointment made the day I rolled her off of the Dealer's lot. Anyhow, this is a good representation of the "BEFORE" shot....





Here's the "AFTER"......




 
The drop is less extreme on the Flex for H&R.  Makes me wonder if an alternate version could be installed (like off the Explorer or something.)

When I spoke to H&R, they said the springs for the flex and explorer where the same and that the difference in lowering heights was due to individual vehicles....
 
I installed just the rear eibach springs on my SHO. Car sits perfectly level, same gap front and rear now. My opinion on just the HR rear springs would be too low.

Is anyone having issues with rubbing in the front following the drop?

No issues whatsoever thus far as it concerns my set up.

However, if I don't calculate for grade transitions as it relates to my lower front chin spoiler, then I can very lightly scrape that piece alone.

But luckily, on the 3M Clear Bra on the under side has weathered that nonsense.

But as far as the springs go, and rubbing or anything else..... nope.

I scraped once as well, on a ridiculously oversized speed bump from, where else, the Post Office.  The type of speed bump that would high-center just about any sports car.  I taught my wife how to side-crawl a speed bump for her first time on the way out of there, lol.

But no rubbing ever.
