        In the front, yes. The back is nearly all the way up in that shot. It's settled out a bit, looks better on flat ground too.

                            You removed a bumpstop from inside a nitrogen pressurized strut? Please explain.

                              Your car is very nice and all, but does your sig have to be so ungodly huge..?

                                Very easy. Remove the shock from the strut, use a hammer & chisel to separate the aluminum cap on the bottom of the shock from the yellow tube (the yellow tube is merely a dust cover, the actual shock is fully self-contained inside of the tube and won't be damaged in any way). You'll see the bumpstops just chillin' there, remove however much you want. I took out 2 of the 3 sections.

                                See above.
