H&R problem looking for help vendors!

I purchased a set of H&R 50735-2 springs off of Gravana, and i received them and put them on right away. The front dropped nicely whereas the rear is still up in the air stock height. I figured it would have to do a lot of settling but let it sit for 3 weeks. Then nothing changed, So I called H&R direct and they told me to read the numbers on the springs to them which I did. I have 50735-2 springs in the front which is right, but the back springs are 50735. No -2. They said these are for base model cobalts not the ss/sc.
Instead of shipping back and forth and waiting for warrantys and whatnot is there any vendor who can sell me just the rear springs?!
Here is a picture of how the car sits



If I have to ill buy another kit and take the bullet but id rather try this first. Figured it was worth a shot

I doubt you can just get half the springs from a kit from any vendor, as the manufacture only ships "kits" to us. If Gravana will switch them out that is your best bet

Thanks aaron, and CTorangesc for the comments
It does give it a raked look lol. Some people around here like it. I want that full dropped look. I feel retarded driving it now and just take the R6 everywhere. ( weather permitting ).
I think ill just end up buying another damn kit.
CTorangeSC what part of CT are you from?

Dude, it was there fault, make them fix it. Yeah, it may take a few weeks to get it settled, but it was their goof, and it would probably be your best bet to let them correct vs. buying a whole new set/half set
