If I get ambitious I may remove the shims to get more drop and see if that gets me close to the 1" drop I was looking for.
I like the look of USAZR1's car but wonder if that's not a little too low, at least for the washboards they call streets where I live.

Don't be too hasty, the car will settle once it all the wedges and whatever takes a set. Drive it for a week. Additionally, if you had to remove a control arm and retorqued it in the extended position, the frame bushings try really hard to stay at that angle for a few days until it twists and relaxes.
I recently traded springs with another guy who wanted to lower his car (I wanted the stock ride height) and both our cars rode higher for a few days.
