Fsport springs hitting on big bumps!
Both front hits a little when i go over a big bump or bad bumpy road i hear metal hitting sound.. the install of the springs was perfect i observed it all the time so i'm sure nothing is rattling but one thing you all know Fsport springs come without silencers..
how OK is it for the spring to hit itself ? any danger should i expect ?

I have f-sports with 20'' rims, and yea when i installed them they would scrap, metal sounds, it's the piece that connects your top corner of the bumper to the car, what i did to stop the noise was remove the screw, bent the lil frame where the screw would go upwards, and zip tied my bumper to the whole where the screw belongs, it still hits once in a while when i go over bumps but all i hear is plastic now, no metal 
hope this helps

I have debating these f sport springs. But I keep reading issues. I am happy with my car but was considering giving it a more aggressive stance. But I have heard of clinking, and scrapping issues. Maybe I'll leave her stock.

... you will not have any scrapping issues... I think Jassie is running 20' rims... I have no problem w/ scrapping on my 18" factory.... The clinking noise is only when you go over bump only.. you will not hear any clinking noise for normal driving... I bought silencer for the spring and the clink noise is gone now...

it'lll look way better, and with stocks or anything 19'' or under you will have no problem, i went with 20'' cause tires are cheaper than 19'' and i only had to do minor adjusting on the car, I hear nothing anymore
