    And perhaps more importantly, performance and handling of the car is likely noticeably improved.
    Hopefully you requested/received both, pre- & post service dyno testing to document the difference.

    You sent them like photo 1 and they came back like photo 2?
    I.e. did they remove springs and bushings, clean, paint, then reassemble?

    I can't say what OPs service included, but they (PSI) can provide a complete mechanical & cosmetic restoration including everything you mentioned and more.

    Yes, I requested a complete restoration.
    They did just that.
    Droop limiters disintegrated, clogging internal parts.
    All internal parts replaced including two piston rods and two cylinders.
    Springs glass beaded and powder coated.
    Shocks totally refinished with proper decals.

    I'll install them soon to get my everyday driver back on the road.

    I also installed new mufflers.

    Cruise control installation is next.
