Gen6 Spring install question

I recently bought some eibach springs for my Gen 6 Camry. The kit included the springs with 2 bushings. Im assuming those are for the fronts. Correct my if im wrong. The question i have is do i need to cut the rear bump stops and if i do how much did you guys cut them.

I am no pro on spring installation but I do not think you need to cut anything. Springs should be PNP. Maybe a little camber adjustment but not for the Eibachs. Drop isnt low enough to call for camber.

Please post pics when complete...

I'm not sure about the eibachs's, but I know with the TRD springs there was no cutting or modification what so ever, all I had to do was replaced the springs. But maybe the eibach's are different..

I cut the bump stop about 1/2 an inch or the bottom rib -- dunno if that helps.

I had the Eibach installed. I was there the whole time of installation process. There was NO cutting or modification what so ever. It was simply replaced the stock springs out and put the new springs in.
