Installed Eibach Prokits, still the same height as stock! What gives?

Okay so over the weekend I installed Eibach Prokits on my coupe but the height hasn't dropped what so ever! Did I do something wrong? I heard tightening your control arm messes with height but i'm rather confused on that topic. I also did leave the car on jackstands for at least 2 days with the suspension weighed down by rims/tires.
Please help! Thanks!

You've got to give new springs 2-3 weeks to settle before you can really judge the ride height. Give her time and if they were installed correctly you should see the drop.

if you install stock coupe springs on a sedan, it will drop, iirc, 1 inch
installing 1 inch sedan drop springs will essentially be same as stock coupe springs

There's info all over this forum. A lot of sedan guys go with coupe springs to drop their cars so you know the coupe springs sit lower than sedans.
