A bit of rake always looks cool, so I would say front a bit lower than back.

I like the front a bit lower than the back.
Remember back in the day when a Surfer had the back of the car about 4ft off the ground? It looked like the front bumper was going to hit the ground. I lived in a Beach town in So. California I saw alot of cars set up that way

I have to go against the grain here and say I reckon lower in the back looks better. Gives it that drag look.

Normally drag cars are higher at the back for weight transfer on launch.
