do you need bumpstops with coilovers?

so i installed my coilovers and left the bump stops in. do you really need them with coilovers?i know you do withjust springs but what about coilovers? my reasoning is. the bumpstops limit the full range if motion with coilovers. they are close to hitting when the shock is still fully extended. maybe cut them in half? but i would think you could remove them. just thought of this so if it is stupid and a noob question i apoligize.
