Default Problem after lowering my car please help....

I just lowered my civic with Eibach Pro-Kit with Koni Sports yesterday. The problem with is my car is lower on the driver side (On Driver side front fender gap is 1 inch and rear 2 inches) And for passenger side is much higher ( On passenger side front fender gap is 2.5 inches and rear 2.5 inches) This is normal? From looking at my car on the passenger side you would not notice its lower at all. Please Please help let me know whatz wrong......
I'm 99% sure that the installationa was correct because I did it myself and I checked everything a thousand time before putting it on.

But there is only one thing I'm not too sure of. Is there any differences between left and right (springs and shocks)? This is the only problem I can think of thats causing the problem....

I finally find out where the problem is. When I did the rear disc brake swap I installed the lower control arm the wrong way so one side is lower than other side. I just correct the control arm now the problem is FIX. Thanks
