I haven't heard that you had to, I've got them, not installed yet, but I mean if the instructions say NO, then DON'T do it. Hell mine didn't even come w/ instructions

You do not cut the bumpstops for the Neuspeed Sports Springs on an accord. If you cut it, the strut rod compresses too much on hard bumps and will bust the strut. I learned the hard way.
