Default 0.5inch drop?

Hey guys
As my title suggest I'm looking into a way for me to lower my car by strictly 0.5inches (about 10mm) I don't really want to go coilovers unless it is my only option to achieve this drop. I was looking into koni yellows to improve dampering and installing springs on the lower perch But it seems to drop more than 0.5inch according to another thread I searched up here. If any owners with a similar setup it will be appreciated.

I've seen a similar post in the past from a fella in Australia that had the perches of his Konis removed and re-welded to get the desired drop.

@slowtouge_max, iirc there is a legal restriction on ride height/ground clearance in Australia

Unnoticeable from a handling standpoint, Visibly, it may or may not be visible if another S2k is parked next to it; once moving, invisible. However, it may be more likely to scrap the noise on sloped driveways..
