Default URGENT: Please help ASAP (Ground-Control Coilovers)

I have these Ground Control Coilovers that I've bought a long time from a guy for my 2000 Honda Accord. I've just installed them today, and the shop said the eibach springs which comes with them were either too short. Now, I don't know much about coil-overs, but I'd like to know the parts number for them and which belongs in the front or the rear. Any help is appreciated.

800.325 - on front?
800.425 - on rear?

If anyone has Ground-Control has coil-overs, please help me. I need help ASAP. Please provide me the part numbers.

well, i have coilovers and i was looking at them after they were installed and i was wondering why the rear was too short. to my knowledge, coilover sleeves are made like that. I asked a lot of people the same question and they have provided me with pictures that in coilover sleeves, when the car is raised, the springs will not sit in place like lowering springs, but will drop down from the strut cup on to the perch because they are short. Perhaps they are made that way because of the adjustability issues. My point is, a lot of peoples coilover sleeves are like that.

you're supposed to cut the bumpstop before you install it. I've got ground controls and tokico illuminas on my 00 accord ex 4dr. But yeah, the rear is short. THat's just the way they are made
