    Tein s and bump stop

    How much should i cut the front bump stops to give the shock a lil more room? I lost the papers that came with the springs.

    I think you cut it in half if i can remember correctly

    Awesome, car feels much better now. There was no space for the shock to absorb. Lol simple things that do a lot.

    It leaves more space for the shock to absorbs toad imperfections. I was bottoming out on some pot holes or road imperfections and i could feel a hard thump on the front. With this cut theres more room before bottoming out.

    Hey guys, So yesterday i installed Tein S Tech /GR2 combo.I had a friend who works on cars help me out.When we did the rear we didn't reinstall the bump stops.
    Would this be a problem.Should i pull them out and replace the bump stops.

    The ride does seem to be fine.
    Just need to know if this would cause a problem.
