Forgot to install bumpstops!
Recently installed new suspension (coilovers with gr2s) but I forgot to install the bumpstops.
Should they be installed immediately? What are the effects? Thanks.

Re: Forgot to install bumpstops!
You don't need to remove the struts. Jack the car up, adjust the coil so the spring is not compressed ie lose on the strut. Remove top nut, push the rod down.

If I had the time and money, I would've bought new mounts. But then again, if I had the MONEY I would've gone with KONIS! Kyb GR2s are just a stock replacement.
