DON'T cut the springs! it'll make it very DANGEROUS!

Stick with the standard ones until you can afford shorter ones.

The following is purely my opinion:
remove rubbing strips down side
paint the edge of the grill with chrome paint
lay the wiper down if  you can't afford to loose it completely

save for some springs and roll the arches for a slammed german look  :cool:
