Headlight adjustment after front lift?

Tried to do a search but the page never loaded on my computer.
Recently raised the front end of my 4th Gen about 2 inches with adjustable coilovers. The projection of my headlights appears to be higher now. I say high because the cutoff of the lights seems to be higher than before.

On several occasions when I approach a car from behind at a traffic light my lights are right in the drivers rear view mirror and I can sometimes see their faces. They often shield their eyes with their hand or adjust their mirror to deflect the bright light. Last night I drove up behind a car on the highway. They were going a little slow so I went around them. Plenty of space and clearance and within the speed limit. They then proceeded to repeatedley flash their bright lights at me.

Is there an adjustment I need to make or is this normal with this type of modification?

These are higher than normal vehicles and maybe this is just how it is suppose to be. I have no headlamp modifications. Thanks in advance.

Headlight adjustment knob

Opened the hood today and found the adjustment knob. Pulled it up close to the garage and projected the beams on the door and then lowered them a bit. Will see how that looks.

Pretty much what I did. I don't have time to get all technical and ''perfect''.
