:cry:

it came like that :cry: Unknown/ maybe standard earlier springs on the rear but what look like konis on the front. Maybe the guy before use to drag it :shock: to compensate squat under acceleration.

anyhoo, i have a set of brand spanking new spax springs sitting in the kitchen :oldtongue:

also at the moment my engine is not running well so best leave it as i can reverse onto ramps and easier to work on.

Was thinking about re-spraying them in a gun metal grey, but it`s a bit of crime, think i`d rather sale them to somebody who`d appreciate them as they where ment to be (pearl white).
