Bumpstop - S-Tech Tein

Do we still need to cut the bump stops when installing the tein s-techs? I read through it manuals and it says there is no need for GD3 to cut it.

Seems to be odd though.

Thanks! I did cut an inch in the front bump stop and it made a difference. The ride is better now (not that harsh). Where is the bumpstop for the rear located?

the rear ones are on the damper(shock) shaft.
