Looks cool!
It looks like you could lower the rear by pushing the lower front up against the back of the frame.
You know, where it looks like there was a bolt hole?
I'm guessing it has to be where it is to line the seat up though.

Looks GREAT my friend... We can start a club now (The Strut-Cutters) 
Yes. lowering the rear is a must if you wan´t the slim look.
I lowered mine total 2".
Couldnt´find lower shocks than 11" so had to go for the lowering blocks. Works great though...
The other thing that helped for me was a larger wheel (larger in diameter)...but that costs and gives more job..

Looks great, I would love to do the same to mine. I have passengers so until I can find a way to do it a still support weight, I'll have to just admire ya'll's work.
