Question lowered front 1 inch, now need new snubber?

Ok, I just lowered the front of my truck a little over one inch a couple weeks ago with Eibachs. Now it looks like snubber is resting on the control arm. Should I cut down the factory bump stop to make it shorter or buy a different one? If a new one is needed any suggestions?

I lowered mine an inch in the front, and I just shaved my factory stops down a little. Or you can buy more, it was easier for me just to cut them down.

Trimmed factory unit vs. Roush bumpstops
