Default bump stops??

I lowered my car with eibach prokit lowering springs but i didnt trim my bumpstops like it said to do. What are bumpstops for and what can i get out of taking the springs back off and trimming them?

Also, when your car hits a big bump and bottoms out the shock, the bump stop hits and rebounds. If you don't cut them, you will have a much bouncier ride that if you do trim them.
