I had a snapped front suspension coil on my 09 e350 coupe in sport trim with standard sport wheels.

I've had both front could replaced with official merc springs and the relevant spacer fitted

I've not yet seen the car in daylight but the front looks jacked up. I will get some pics in daylight

Is this normal? Will they settle down?

My first gut reaction is wow that's quite a gap

They should settle within a couple of miles. On the W211 the front shocks had adjustable spring platforms and it wasn't uncommon for them to be reassembled incorrectly on a higher step. Maybe the newer models are the same?
 
I'm hoping hat they settle I will have a look in the day light tomorrow to see if a drop of 1" would look right

They should be he right springs. They were ordered from merc using the VIN/chassis number. Springs had to be fitted with a new spacer
