try doing underhand grip pulldowns for a while, they will help bring up your lower lats.

use low pulley rows to stretch the lower area of your lats more during the movement. your insertions high or low also determine how 'low' the lats hang on the back. some bodybuilders have lats that start at their ass (columbo)  or some start mid back
