Sorry for the questions

I find the drop to be mild, nothing excesive and I have not scraped the front on uneven driveways. Speedbumps haven't been an issue either.
I failed to measure before installing but I do believe it's around an 1" all around.
I will snap some pics from the front and post them up.

I agree, the drop seems to be more uniform than the front/rear rate they advertise.

mmmpassion kiysersosae Answering both at the same time since you asked same question. No bumpstop modification was required. I contacted Eibach regarding the specs of cutting the OEM bumpstop and their reply was as follows:
Hey Esteban,
This Pro-Kit is very straight forward and you will only need to replace the springs. There is no bump stop trimming or replacement required. We usually include replacement bump stops if necessary. In this case, not needed.
