Default Lowering Kit removal

I just purchased a 2000 S4 which was lowered at least in the front. I want to replace this with the stock parts to restore the original ride height. I can't locate the original owner since the car then went through several wholesalers in 2 states before I got it. The front springs are a Lime green color if that means anything to anyone out there. Sitting level the fender lip is just BELOW the top of the tire. The tires and wheels are stock. This leaves me with about 3.5" of ground clearance which is not enough for my area roads. So considering that this car has been lowered about 3" I need to know what parts were swapped. Obviously the springs are different, the center 2 coils amlost touch at full extension. I assume a camber kit was also used.
So I'm asking anyone who has lowered there ride how I can UN-lower this car. Thanks, for any help. George

Don't waste your money, either look for some one who has just upgraded & buy the stock stuff back.

Or buy a set of coil overs & set the ride height where you want it.
