If the car has been that low ever since you installed the springs then they may have lowered the car too much. If it has gotten progressively lower over the last two years then the springs may just be sagging. This happens with low quality springs.

Don't worry about it being a bumpstop issue. If the car keeps getting lower there is something else at play here.

I've installed hundreds of lowering springs on dozens of different type cars. There have been a few cars (mine included) that the springs lowered the car so much that it actually sat on the bumpstops. Therefore, if you cut the bumpstops that the car is literally sitting on, guess what happens? The car goes even lower.
Here is a couple of pics to prove my point.
