Just like the title says. I have them currently and am getting them installed tomorrow. They didn't come with a bumpstop. Is that necessary?

Your car already has a bumpstop.

Yeah but some springs require a new one that is a different size. Just wondering if the stock one would be okay.

Steeda advertises 1 1/4 in drop. So I'm thinking maybe a 1 1/2 in drop after its all settled. Should be okay?

I agree with twogts4us, just take the stock bump stop off and cut about half of it off and reinstall it.
