some may say use OEM only.... but well, aftermarket works well, it holds the car, and does the job.
So does aftermarket IMS, right?

Anyway, 2 years ago, using 20% rebate on KONI RED, I got all 4 corners rebuilt.
The only parts that were reused were the springs.
Everything else (struts, bumps, mounts, arms, swaybar links...) was replaced.
Total was about $2'000. give or take 100.

Time? 3 days.

If only front shocks - well, I would do it in half day easily.
