The rear looks lower than the front.
Happy with the ride? Bouncy?

Very happy, complete opposite of bouncy it's pretty stiff, I feel the bumps more but not to the point of being really annoying. It improved highway driving, the car feels more planted to the ground the wind doesn't push me around as much and it hugs curves, way less body roll too.
Good to hear.
Have you lowered other cars you've owned?

It Looks good. It does look a bit higher in the front but it could just be the ground levelness its parked on. Id be interested to know your opinion after you've driven on it for a week or two. When I lowered mine my first opinion was that it was noticeably stiffer but comfortable. As I drove it for a few weeks over different road surfaces I could definitely feel how stiff it was compared to stock. Having said that a lot of the stiffness for me comes from a lower profile tire. I see a huge difference when switching from my winter tires with a taller side wall. I had also lowered my Nissan Maxima with eibach springs. Since it has a longer wheel base I could only slightly even feel a difference, but when it came to the overall look of it and the cornering there was no comparison. Mine on the Micra are H&R, which are known to be a bit stiffer then other brands but i guess every brand is engineered a bit differently. Happy travels

i wonder if the spring is SEATED in the perch ?
The simple answer is the front springs are in the rear and rear springs in front, but i doubt thats possible to do

2015 Micra S (manual)
no A/C /no power options/ block heater/4x 2 Ohm speakers...all factory stock in 2015
Feb 2015 build
9,999 purchase price + tax..no additional 1600$ because it was a 2015 purchased in 2016
so receipt says $8,399....+1600 .... so they look good i guess...for a brand new car!
I checked and it is, I am park on a very uneven ground level so it makes it look worse.
