The guy said he'd be doing it for show. funny how nobody comprehends what they read. He probably wants to do it because when you're layed out, (or bottomed out, rather, on these cars, the rear sits lower than the front, and looks half stupid.
Before I played with my front end, after I lowered the car quite a bit I wanted to do this so I didn't bottom out when hitting bumps. I don't bottom out anymore, but that extra half inch would make a huge difference if you cruise fast and low with a low profile tire on a 16" wheel.
I talked to eddie at american air about doing this, he said he's done it for a couple guys, such as Ray? Not sure if he did it for Ray, but I'm pretty sure he said he's done this also. -Eddie says he won't do it anymore, couple reasons would be warranty, second would be because the newer second gen struts (which are about all you can get nowdays) have plastic internal components whereas the gen 1's were steel. So, if you do have the bump stops taken out, you'd only want to for show. I remember someone else (Ray?) or another guy, can't remember his name off hand - who said he took the bump stops out of gen 2 struts, and within 2k miles they bound up, and were absolute junk, and had to be replaced in order to drive the car again.
So, yeah .. it's possible, it's been done. But, don't cruise like that unless you're feeling rich and don't mind down time.
Keep in mind it's possible to elongate the bottom mounting hole on the strut to get a bit lower, don't elongate it too far though, and don't drill a seperate hold altogether unless you're absolutely sure you have it measured out right.
