Thank you for your great write up but I have a question about your front suspension. I thought that Koni only have the front Strut Insert and that you have cut and remove the top part of the stock strut, then bolt the new Koni strut into the stock O.E. housing. From your pictures, it looks like your front strut is entirely new and one piece straight form Koni with the matching yellow paint. So is your front suspension new or insert with stock strut and painted to match the yellow Koni insert? Thanks.
