Default Lowering question.....

By using the search feature I cannot find out exactly what is involved in lowering a C5 on stock bolts. I have found out about cutting bushings and using longer bolts but I just want to snug up my 'Vert a little.
I am using a buddies lift to install my Ti exhaust and thought it would be a good time to lower it and install a skip-eliminator.
Thanks,
Dan
