Option 2, no longer available
2. For the people that don't want the DIY version, I'll do a completely made up set of struts which will take you 5 minutes to swap over. This is on an exchange basis though, and it requires you to be able to swap the struts over within 7 days of receiving the new ones, and send me your old struts back, ready to be modded for another person.Note. This kit no longer comes with the heat shrink applied, as it was found to be hindering the operation of the spring. Most are opting to paint the springs black or colour coded to their car. "

It was found quite early on that the heat shrink was actually getting in between the spring coils when the springs compress. This was deemed to be putting too much pressure on the strut mounts, so it was removed. The last 180 or so sets have gone out without heat shrink. Hope you understand

OK I see, thanks for the clarity. I saw the heat shrink in the 'How To' and thought it was a nice finish but couldnt see them in the kit you sent.

If the springs cant be hidden, how about I paint the springs the body colour, do you think this will work?
