Order the kit and find out. I highly doubt there would be instructions from a factory performance division to ever cut anything. The kit will either include new bump stops or have you reuse the stock rears.
But why even ask a question that can't be answered without ordering all the parts since we've already determined that the kit can't be sourced part by part.
It won't help in determining whether to cut the bump stops when using B6/8 Bilsteins: it's a different setup, and it should be tuned for your preference/driving conditions, just like any other part of a suspension that's being pieced together. It's a false equivalency argument to assume that what STi did with their setup would be best for something similar you might be putting together. There are too many variables.
