Default Help! car is STILL lower on one side !! And only in the front!

Well first i put Eibach springs on a couple years ago, and I measured and noticed the right side of the car was like 3/8" to maybe 1/2" lower than the left (in front) the rear of the car is even. I thoght maybe it was some inconsistence in springs or something. Well now I have installed Hypercoils and new Bilstein shock. mmade sure the spring were placed properly in the groves on the spring perches and all that. Now the car is STILL 3/8" lower on the pass. side!! How can I correct this ?? I was thinking of maybe putting some shims between the bottom shock mount and the lower control arm on that side. Would that work? I can't really think of any other way to shim it. Anybody else have this problem? I am determined to correct it this time !
Thanks

Easy pull the taller coil out and trim a 1/4 of the coil off.If that doesnt do it cut another 1/4 this will fix it I have done it before.
