Wanna go lower than my coilovers allow :/

I am fairly new to the yaris in general. I am coming from the miata world where my cars lowest point was about half an inch off the ground, so I don't need to be told how impractical having a super low car is, or the dangers of exposing parts to damage or prematurely worn out shocks. I am going into this fully aware.

That being said!... I recently purchased some tein basics and installed them. They are all the way down all around but I am quite a bit disappointed with the drop... I know for the rears I could probably just remove the collar set up all together (it'd basically just be a tein lowering spring with the tein shock. But for the fronts, removing a collar isn't going to give me much more of a drop.

Is there anything similar to a recessed top hat that can be purchased for the fronts so I can get that extra bit? Can anyone recommend a way to go about this? The suspension set up on the Yaris seems... odd... to say the least coming from dual wishbone all around on the miata. I'm not sure how to approach this.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
