How much lower did you go? An inch and a half or less and a good alignment shop should be able to adjust this. More than and inch and a half and you'll likely need CC Plates. Either way, I'd take it to an alignment shop now and see what they tell you. If they can't adjust it enough, buy CC plates. You can install them yourself with basic hand tools. (It's just a matter of replacing the OEM ones.)
