Hmmm, never heard of anybody doing that. It could make the spring sit crooked and rub on the shock, but then again, maybe not. If you try it, report back here on the results. I wouldn't bother with the hose; the front springs are stiff enough to just pinch it right off.

Of course you could do it the right way and just order some coil overs from Ground Control.

Hose mod? Do you know the point of that?

No, don't take out the nylon spacer up front. Maybe you should consider raising the rear as the Eibach rears are known to sit low and be a bit soft. Here, check this thread, it's a common problem.
