Default Lowered Ultra

Does anybody have any pictures of an ultra with just the rear lowered. I plan on doing both but only have the rear kit right now so i want to install it but im not sure how it will look without the front lowered.

Works great solo bottoms out occasionally but with passenger or fully loaded for a week long trip it's different story unless you pump the rear shocks to max then you have a hard tail, lowering rear itself is fine but if you lower the front you have to lower the rear end hope that helps.
