    What kind of shocks are these?

    Boge 3352 1132 250 2
    Yellowish in color.
    It says gas pressure... but I've only seen black ones.
    I pulled it out of a 1990 325iS.

    Are they any good?
    I googled it and it's not telling me much...

    They might just be rebuilt. Some companies color-code or 'mark' their shocks after doing it the first time. Helps them in the future if they come across a defective item that keeps being returned or to honor a warranty. Much like Rack&Axle stickers their driveshafts, axles, and steering racks. You should call them to verify.

      I believe Boge was an alternative supplier of shocks for e30s. If they are still around, why not call them?

              The boges came in the sport package, if memory serves me correctly. They were the stiffer valved shock for the 325is and 318is

                Thanks for the info. That's what I suspected.
