For now, Scott could just replace the struts (And top mounts if needed) and throw in a couple spring rubbers for the winter to raise the height by an inch or so, and then when he gets the MT5 swapped in, cuut the fronts to make the ride height correct, and posibly tighten up the front just a little.

Cheap and easy all the way around.
Easier would be to just get some lowering springs, rather than cutting the OEM springs, which would lead to riding the bump stops. The stock springs are probably too soft to use at a lower ride height IMO.
