The coilovers are JOM btw. The issue is that the spring perch is too small in diameter to go around where the factory spring sits ( I can't think of the correct term ATM) . There is a shim piece of steel that looks like I need to knock off to allow the perch to fit properly. Before I whack this piece out, I want to be sure this sounds right..
