So, I've had my car for about 9 months now.... I just found those spacers and removed them! Doh! Can any damage be done for having these in for so long?

Again, thanks for the replies (especially PikesPeakZ), I went to the stealership and they removed them and now the front sits lower and I actually get suspension travel now! I also managed to get out of there without them saying that I need the engine flushed, new brake pads, tires rotated, or any other moronic thing.

I still don't understand how somebody can drive a car with no suspension travel in the front for that long and not realize that something is wrong...Wouldn't it handle really weird at the least, or crash like crazy over bumps?
