I've had a set of shocks made for my GTO3 by Black Art Designs and thought i'd post some pics as i know a few people are having problems with shocks. The fit is perfect, and the ride is fantastic! The damp/rebound is set in the middle for now but i'll have a bit more of a play with them when i eventually get the car on a trackday.
The twin locking nut system has gone and they now lock by turning an allen key which is much better and saves your knuckles.;) I've also had a nice new set of Eibach springs fitted.biggrin
If your interested give John a call on 01371 856777 or 07740 304236 he's a top bloke and really knows his stuff!

The price inc spring was about £290 + vat each, which i thought was good as i had a quote of £280 + vat for each shock from noble, and this way i get new springs and better shocks with adjustment. Reconditioning the shocks is about £120 plus vat each from bilstein and that's just the seals and re-gas. yes

So similar to Nitrons. Good to have another choice.
