Awesome! I love the look of the AGX, I'm just having a hard time justifying the price when I've only experienced OEM lol.

I contacted SSC on Friday but I have to call for a price and to purchase. May do that tomorrow.

Should be about $180 including shipped. Ordering was pretty easy.

Dang. Kind of doesn't surprise me. So many people probably pick up old parts and boxes at random sales and just assume the parts in them to be real. The person that sold me mine said they had picked them up a garage sale and just figured the correct items would be in the box lol..

There are actually two different part numbers the KYB has for the GR2 and Excel-G...Apparently if you get the GR2s they are actually about the same as the Non-FE4 suspension so they would be a downgrade if you have the FE4 suspension currently.

You want-

339015-Front

and

339148-Rear

KYB Excel-G vs GR-2 - interesting discussion with KYB tech.
Thanks for the links, I actually decided against the GR2/Excel G.

Went with AGX. Fronts are here and SSC springs are out for shipping today according to their tracking number

Looks good. Thats what I have right now. Only Vogtlands instead of SSC.

I know the red looks good on the struts now but I might look into doing a crinkle coat red on them if you are in a road salt state.
