cutting bumpstops

So I did the front springs with eibach and it says to cut the bump stop by 1.1 inches. I misread and only cut about .6 inches. Everything is back together now. Will this be OK or will the have consequences? Need input asap as this is my DD
Thanks!

if I'm reading correctly, its already on the car.
drive it around, if the suspension rebounds but hits the bumpstop, you might have to go back and cut it down a little bit more

You wont have any issues. If you are bottoming the shock out to hit it that hard you are driving to fast over large bumps.
