Rep Power: 242

DHL just dropped off my Goldlines (courtesy of s0ltk3r). I'm still waiting on my rear camber to arrive wednesday but I had a quick question before I do the drop. I know you have to cut the bump stops (however with Goldlines the front is optional) but which end do you cut off of? I know that 20 million people are going to tell me to search, but save your breath cause I already searched. I came across this thread: Bump Stop

Didn't this guy who posted the picture of the cut bump stop in the second picture totally cut off the wrong end? Just want to make sure what I need to cut before I screw something up.

no thats right, if you cut the other end the black cup piece wouldnt fit right

I don't mean to be stuborn but I disagree. I've always heard that you cut from the top.

I never cut my bump stops when I was lowered on my springs. You dont HAVE to do it. If you still have your stock struts, its not a bad idea to just leave the bump stops alone to protect the struts. Youll still eventually blow them anyways, but at least theyll last a little longer.
