Default Front spring help.....

Recently installed the BMR k-member and after install the front is sitting a bit higher than the back. I have the oe wheels 18's in the front and 19's in the back.
The car has from the factory with the Bilstein kit option, which I believe is the Eibach springs all the way around. Does anyone know of a spring that would be able to lower it more to have that nice stance in the front, the back at the moment looks fine.
People keep telling me to cut he springs, but I have no desire to do things half-***, just looking for a good solution and some spring ideas,

thanks

BMR has some front Lower A-arm that'll lower the front 1".

How much is the actual difference? Also when you installed the front lower a-arms on the k-member did you tighten the a-arms with the suspension hanging or the suspension loaded?
