Toytec Ultimate @4" above stock concern

Ok, so I just picked up my '04 with 137k miles up from my mechanic who installed my Toytec Ultimate Lift. The before measurements were (center of wheel to fender):
LF=18-1/2", RF=18-1/2".
LR=21", RR=21".

The measurement now is:
LF=22-1/2", RF=22-1/2".
LR=23-1/2", RR=23-1/2".

So the rears lifted an expected 2-1/2". But what about the front at 4" lift? Toytec specs that I shouldn't go over 3" total lift. Question is, could this 4" be due to having the original springs/shocks having sagged, PLUS the new Bilsteins/Eibachs giving it a true 3"? Maybe it'll settle another inch?

Sounds about right.

My measurements were roughly the same, both before and after.

No issues here.

PS. Fellow Scirocco owner over here. Got my '82 Scirocco 8v that I bought in highschool stored in my grandmas garage. Best car EVER! Lol
