Yeah I can tell, but it's hard to see in that kind of lighting. You should get new struts when possible though, or coilovers if you have the money.

the springs are gonna settle over about a 2-3 week period. personally id get performance struts on there asap becaue they are not the best quality springs. rolling too long with the setup as it stands now will not only damage the shocks but ware the springs down as well.

looks great though man.

Personally, I think it looks great Flip!! But fix the slightly crooked fender molding as someone else pointed out (sharp eye btw buddy! I didn't see it until you pointed it out) When I dropped my car an inch (TRD's claimed drop, which I happen to believe now) last week, the only dropped about half an inch off the lift. So I would wait like 2 weeks. Also, if your struts (OEM I assume?) have some mileage on them, use it as an excuse to get tokico blues or KYB GR-2's
