Is this bad? im sure ill get a pretty diverse answer on this, Ive been driving like this for a few weeks, Im wondering if its going to do any damage to the actual mounting spot of the spring..I searched and couldnt find any info on it.

thanks

 

not a good idea IMO. It is there to provide a barrier between metal metal contact. At the very least you are going to scratch up the undercoating which will lead to rust

 

You might get some creaks and noises

 

It also centers the spring, without it, the spring is free to shift during travel and in extreme cases can actually come out of the bucket

 

yeah i get some weird noises now and then but thats whatever..i think im going to try and get a pad to stick in there to stop scratching ect.

 

Why would you even take it out?

 

To lower the car.

 

I guess it's not just Civic owners, with enough time the G has devalued to a point where people without any money, and more importantly without any common sense start to buy it. Put your springmount back and get lowering springs, they're dirt cheap.

 

Right..i guess not. My car clearly has no money into it. Im on coils bro

 

why didn't you just lower the rears a bit more if you have coilovers?.. or just cut some of the spring mount to level things out

 

how do you drive

 

cut 90% of the spring mount and put it back in. It's there for a reason.
-GP-

 

^^ yea thats what im going to do this weekend.

 

the stance just dont go low enough in the back

 

that's fvcking crazy man.

A good bump and the spring could easily jump out of there.

You're fvcking nuts.
