Default FS in Norcal: FSport springs/shocks combo

These were installed on an IS350 (will fit 250 as well) for roughly 15k miles. They were removed, and coilovers installed in their place. There is no damage, no leaks, and they worked perfectly before they were removed. The rear springs have been replaced with the newer TSIB springs. All of the upper coils on the rear springs have been wrapped with Tien coil dampener to eliminate any chance of noise. The set will include the Bilstein FSport shocks, springs, all of the lower rubber spring perches, and 2 of the front upper rubber perches. You will need to re-use all 4 of your factory upper mounts, as those were re-used in the coil-over install.

Asking $500/obo. Located in Fremont, CA (Norcal).

Pictures (they are huge, so right click/save as, and then zoom out! lol):

The ride will be stiffer of course, but its still comfortable enough to drive daily. These shocks and springs work pretty well together. Handling will be greatly increased over the stock stuff, too. The nice thing about these springs, is that they dont slam the car. So ground clearance is still pretty good, but the car looks a ton better.

Id really rather not seperate, id like to keep it as a set. But let me look at retail prices, in order to figure out what a fair split would be, if i do decide to split them. Thanks guys..
