so koni will sell u the gc coilovers and cut the perches for u? how much extra did they charge to cut the perches and include the gc's?




according to the previous owner of my set-up, YES! I called koni about warrany info for the paint on the struts. I wandered into asking them how they go about cutting the purches and still offering the warranty for them. Koni told me, that because they cut the purches off and had a supervising tech do this that all warranties with the struts are valid as long as the modifications do not damage the shock shaft.... that's all I know - JOE

I am disappointed in the quality of the paint that Koni uses on their struts. Mine has started chipping off after around 5,000 miles. The paint on my stock struts held up better after 80,000+ miles.

that is gh3y though on how the paint they use is cheap, I mean sweriouly its not like the struts are cheap in price, u pay a pretty penny and I'd be pissed if I saw paint chipping. My BAT struts are still in excellent shape

I don't know why they use such cheap sealant and paint on these struts..... mine looked like a bomb went off around them.... they look nice now though:
