KY coilovers, short shifter, sideskirts, shift ****, bushings, trunk LOW LOW prices

Category: Accessories
Price: $1
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Item Condition: Used

ALL PRICES ARE OBO

As most of you know, my car got hit, I sold some ****, this is the stuff I still have.


STANCE Coilovers

SOLD

I got these coil-overs near the beginning of the December NEW, so not so many miles on them. However front passenger shock is damaged. I called STANCE, they said they would rebuild the shock. Worst case scenario, they replace the shock which will cost $200. The other three shocks, and the 4 coils are in great shape.

damaged one:





AxialFlow short throw shifter x Fortune Auto Ti Shift **** x Shiftstyle red alcantra shift boot:SOLD

The short shifter is $275 new, and the shift **** is $120. Selling them together because the **** is stuck.





MazdaSpeed Replica Side skirts painted Sunlight Silver: $200 PICKED UP, $250 SHIPPED
[/CENTER]


The were not on the car when it got hit, couple scratches, and bad spots, but otherwise real cool. Fits well too

The sides actually sit well, they just had 3M tape on it, and it was sagging in the pic.







Carbon Trunk

SOLD



Random stuff

A pair of energy suspension sway bar bushings (OEM Sized): $10 picked up, $15 shipped

Brand new, haven't even opened the packaging that they came in

Spark Plugs: $30 picked up, $35shipped

Damn man, that sucks. Very interested in those coilovers... If I had that one shock replaced by the company, would the other three handle differently from being broken in more than the new one? For example: 3 old tires + 1 new = unsafe/bad handling.

Thanks!

You would just send the other front one in and have them test it to make sure they have the same kg rating. A gas refill is pretty cheap.

I meant send the good one in with the busted one to get them balanced with the same kg rating. So you have equally fresh front shocks. that's what I would do/have done/recommend

Think it'd cost much more to do that along with getting a new one?

they should inspect and diagnose it for free. If the good one needs a top off, regas is not expensive. 70 bux tops. It probaby doesn't need it I would suggest it though. I'm just suggesting the "do it right the first time". I have experience with used coilovers.

stance coilovers are very adjustable especially for the price, usually around 1k 1.2k new.

from my understanding megans are low/entry level systems and stance is a low-mid level system

Yes Stance is better. Call stance, get some info and pricing. I would get them but I have the JIC brand and did the exact same thing I suggested. I have done the same with 2 sets for my old rx7. I can't justify spending 2g's on shocks but refurbished ones for under 8oo bucks, for sure.

Yeah I only read a couple posts and decided I want these over the megan's for sure. Imput I know you said it's $200 to get it replaced but could you (or anyone else if you don't mind), call stance and just see how much it is to rebuild/match both fronts. Or maybe just replace it but still match? I would call but I'm stuck in Afghanistan currently with no phone.... I am very interested and have the full funds in my paypal at this very moment.

Thanks!
Ryan

Oh and how low do these baby's go? That pic of the trunk is with your stance's on?

Could you send pictures of the other 3 to my email if possible? lebel.ryan@gmail.com

Megans are garbage.

I'll call stance and find out how much a rebuild on all the shocks will be, and PM you. Although I dont get the point.

My bad man, I guess I worded that wrong. The back two are staying as is. I would be sending both fronts in and either replacing or rebuilding the bent one and have them make sure they are evenly matched. Just wondering what the price is to match them (should be free, no?) and how much it is to rebuild that shock. You said replace completely for $200 right?

Thanks, Ryan

I just figured the undamaged front is settled more than the new one will be? Will it not make a difference at all? I'll just send the broken one in by itself to be replaced if so.

Either way... $200 is a definite? If so, I'll take em man. Got the funds now...

I would call if I could, I have no phone in Afghanistan. I'll try finding an email address and email them. I'll get back to you asap.

Thanks for all the help.
