idea- lowering car even more
Im thinking about removing the rubber isolator cover thats on top of the springs on the rear. that will lower the car about 1/2 inch. will there be any problems doing so?

I'm pretty sure you would get more vibration and harshness because you are removing that rubber isolator.
