Don't worry about it. Mine's at the same height, and I had no problems last Winter.
However, I did pull off my belly pan on a chunk of ice (but that happened because I was missing a few fasteners, and it was hanging down a little.) Unless you will be facing extreme weather conditions, I'd leave it as is.

Put your modded A6 away for the winter and buy a beater like I did.
best thing I did. Alot of crazies driving when the ground gets white. No worries in a beater. paid $750 for a 96 Pontiac Grand Am, spent a few $100 to make it perfect. I drive it to work everyday racking up less miles on the A6 per yr. It has become my sentimental favorite car over my A6 4.2. It's like a reliable wife that doesn't ask for much and the A6 is like an expensive good looking girlfriend on the side

Not a quick task, and besides, after winter, the coilovers will probably be stuck...
...those threads are impossible to keep clean and those adjusting rings kind of lock into place. Not easy to move after some use...especially after winter.
Leave em alone.
Leave em alone.

Some people like the good looking wife, and the inexpensive girlfriends on the side...
I meant as far as cars are concerned of course. I drove my other half's Civic for a while and just started missing the Audi too much. It's back to the A6 for the daily driving and the civic and 96' grand cherokee for other purposes.
