can i get by just lowering the front?

My car has 18 inch Y2K's in the rear and i just took a pic of the car today and noticed how much wheel well gap there is in the front. The back doesn't look to bad do you guys think it would look ok with the front lowered a inch or so and the back stock? Also would this kill traction? Here is the pic

You tried looking at it when you are on level road I think it might be your driveway's angle

Clean car by the way

Personally I like the lowered front look. On my 84 Camaro not only did I put 2" dropped spindles on it, but I put 15" wheels on the front and 16" on the back.
The point is if you like it do it.

AW,
I think he was talking to me, and I didn't take it personally. Actually it may me laugh, cause most 3rd gens. do look like that. Funny thing is he couldn't be farther form the truth.
Sorry I don't have any picts.
I bought it new in 84 to road race. It's a plain black Z28. I put the BellTech dropped front spindles on it to get the roll center down without loosing suspension travel, and help keep the air out from under the car. It would take an entire page just to list the suspension mods. Suffice it to say with the fender flares and 9.5" front rims I had to go with 15's to keep from rubbing the inner fender wells. As the back end has also been lowered I don't think the rake is excessive. Just a nice cat like stance.
Yall have a good day.
