Default lowering question

this question is for people' who have lowered their cars more than 1 inch. did anyone have to cut their bump stops on their cars in order to lower them? and if you did how much did you cut? thanks

Nope. Don't need to cut anything.

The Eibachs only lowered it 3/4" all around but others said theirs dropped 1"+. Even people that dropped 1.5" with coilovers have never said anything about the bump stops. Really don't think you need to worry about them.

I think there was an instruction in the Eibach Springs Box that tells you to cut the bumpstop? so my installer cut it... I have no problem so far..
