Those are definitely not e30 struts. Basically if you cut off the factory perch and spray paint the strut housing to not rust, the extra couple thousandths of an inch make the sleeve a very tight squeeze. I like to use pledge when i install them. I spray it on everything. Makes parts slide on easy, creates a barrier from corrosion,and its non slippery when it dries. Learned about the glorious uses of pledge back when i used to race motorcycles. Makes track-side tire changes a breeze.
Bad news. 2 months + 2 weeks. Just got an email this morning.
Hi Nigel, had to take an unexpected trip and couldn't finish the routings for the quote. I will be in the office on Monday and should have them finished then. Sorry, for the delay. We just had an ownership change at our Corporate level and things have been somewhat chaotic the past couple of weeks. Your requirements are quite straightforward and shouldn't cause any issues. I'll be in touch Monday.

You can still buy them just not at the discounted price. Well, technically the my retail price of $335 is still a discounted price. Its my 1st year intro pricing.
