Default SOLD: Bilstein Escort Cup Coil-Overs

For Sale: Bilstein Escort Cup Coil-Overs, $1,250 incl shipping
(X-Post from the For Sale forum)

These are in great shape, bought last year from Rennlister Rob. I've decided to go with Koni double-adjustable instead, so these were never installed on my car. They come as-pictured with lower perches, locking rings, helper springs, plus the billet aluminum 2.25" spring hats for the tops of the fronts (usually sold seperately for $150).

Rob had been running them with 400# fronts and 550# rear. I have those springs, and may considering including them for more money, but they aren't included at the listed price. I am planning to use the 550# rears, but I'll need 2.5" ID for the Koni fronts, so I can't use the 400#'s. Add $100 to my price if you would like the Hypercoil 400#'s (not pictured, but they look perfect - no scratches).

Are those Gold, or Silver while reflecting a gold background?

The rears are all silver. The front strut housings do have a gold-ish tint, but I think the lighting in my garage (sun shining in too) amplified the gold look. I probably should have turned on the flash on my iPhone, but I didn't want to get a reflection.

Do you already have the Konis? If not would you be interested in a partial trade? I have front double adjustables valved for 450# springs,2.5in Qa1 450# springs, Racers edge spring hats.

Why do you want to trade for the Bilsteins? Aren't those shocks pretty decent?

Thanks, but I've already got a set of four Koni's on the way.

Thanks! I think it's fair price for what's included but you never know what the demand is for these shocks. There has been plenty of discussion regarding spring rates lately, so I hope the market is good... but I think that docwhite already has his set .

My plan is to give this a try for 7-10 days, then they'll go up on eBay. These sets always seem to sell quickly over there!

Oh, and for anyone looking for springs (for this set or any other need), be sure to check out Derek@TRG's garage sale thread:
