I would think about 4 or possibly 5 coils maximum, should make it nice and low.

I still want it to be just legal, maybe just under the defect mark of 100mm at the lowest point of the car. ⬇⬇ I was thinking of 1 or 1 1/2 in front and 2-3 in back?

Don't be a cheap bastard. There are other road users that your cheap ass is putting at risk. Buy lowered springs and put the angle grinder away.

Clueless. Cutting springs equals illegal - plus no insurance.

We don't condone this sort of modification. Go read the rules before posting again or you will be removed from the forum.
