    Modify/cut rear bump stops

    Hey guys,
    For those on Coilovers, or Kw HAS, have any of you modified or cut your rear bump stops.......

    Reason I ask is just doing some rough math, most folks are runnng between 29-30" FTG. Originally the Q sits at 32-33" FTG which means - 3" drop..... can't imagine the car has more than 4-5" of standard up travel and so this means that once dropped, within an 1" we are starting to ride the bump stop. This obviously can make for a bouncier ride as now your riding on something that was intended to slow/limit bottoming out, not control your suspension.

    So curious, has anyone modified, cut, or removed the rear bumpstops for those on Coilovers or KW HAS?

    Thanks Ian. . I think that is perfectly aligned with what I was thinking. Will likely order up a new set and cut as well.

    Thanks!
