No, you shouldn't cut it.

you shouldn't need to cut it.

1. Eibach Prokit doesn't drop too low

2. KYB AGX shocks = thumbs up, stiff compression dampening

Don't stress so much man

KYB does make aftermarket bumpstop/dust shields designed for the stiffer struts. I got a set when I swapped mine out, and they dis seem to be a tad shorter.

i did the prodrive/kyb combo last week on my 04 and i decided to cut the rear in half because they were pretty big and looked like they could use alittle bit off. The front on the other hand were smaller so i wouldnt worry about those.
