I don't think it's a safety issue at all. Like you said -- people have been cutting springs for years. Howver, they don't typically ride well compared to a set of true lowering springs. Car looks good, though!

It makes no sense that you feel more bumps than I. My springs are stiffer and I have sportier shocks?

It looks sweet... I don't think your dropped 2 inches however; my NF's look just as low, perhaps even lower in the rear.

I actually took pictures with a yard stick on all 4 corners before and after, and after the springs settled it was exactly 2 inches when sitting on level ground all 4 fender well set at 24.5 inches when measured in alignment with the center of the wheel
