I fitted the Prodrive springs to my STI 8 today and was wondering if anyone could advise me regarding the following....
The spring kit contains 2 small bump-stops, but the piston inserts on the STI shock absorbers are massive.... far too big for the bumpstops to go over them!
Why are bumpstops included if they won't go on the shocks?
I can't help feeling that something is wrong and/or missing, since surely Prodrive wouldn't include bumpstops if they weren't to be used?

see the attached Prodrive documentation on how to replace front bump stops. mine was fitted last week. no problems, it was the right bump stops - orange ones.
look for the added documentation comes with the kit.
if u don't have it let me know, i will send it to you

Oh, I forgot to mention the important note that was added to the doumentation, and says: "This vehicle is fitted with the Prodrive WR Sport Spring Package (part no. SACC2555). When a front strut is changed the standard bump stop MUST be replaced with part number SACC2555A.
