What happened with your front struts as far as the bump stops?
The Bilstein B6's I have up front (and all Bilstein mono-tube struts for the F3x platform) have internal bump stops at the bottom of the strut. You need to unscrew the nut from the bottom of the strut, then unthread the shock out of the strut to get to them. They're about 2.5" in length, and the ones in the B6 are pretty soft (definitely softer than OE).

At my static ride height I was already compressing them .5", however, since they're so soft it wasn't very noticeable. Just for the sake of it though, I trimmed them .5".
