Default Back of car has suddenly lowered in height, while front has raised?

My set up is KYB AGX's with neuspeed sport springs on an 01 Civic coupe

I noticed today that the back of the car looks almost dumped, while the front has raised about the width of one finger....I haven't done anything recently to alter the suspension except that about 2 days ago, I had the back of the car on jackstands to install a rear lip...any thoughts or ideas on this?

here is a pic:


just yesterday, there was a 2 finger gap on the front and the back. now there's one finger in the back, and 3 in the front...any help is greatly appreciated
