coil over question

i was going to chop the springs in my civic but i came across some coil over sleeves for 40 bucks and they are adjustable but the question i have is they were originally bought for a 95 hatchback and i have a 2000 civic sedan any idea if the sleeves will fit on my shocks ?

Re: coil over question

Dont ever cut your springs, see if you can order the missing piece form the manufacturer, and yes I would say it is a problem if you cant find a new rubber piece.
