Not sure what's going on with that. I take it that the standard (black) springs are still fitted. By the looks of it you've either got an elephant in the boot

or the spring has collapsed. When you say this is how she looks now - is that just on the side that has collapsed i.e.is the car sat unevenly?
The new spring looks 'unsprung to be around 50mm lower but the compression rate of the spring will be different so you won't really know until you've fitted them. Different makes of spring sit differently on different models and engine variations.
