Default c4 with QA1 coilovers.

How do I create a front bump stop? The factory shocks had them built in the shock. Now that I have coilovers and after market QA1's, I'm concerned that I may damage something if I don't have a front bump stop.
Any solutions?
Thanks for any help,
Todd

That might just do the trick. I just didn't want to fully compress the shock and use that as the stop.

Unless you have REALLY soft springs, you'd have to jump it to need a bump stop.
