    Easy - they bought their car with "new shocks" and then few weeks/months later they failed.

    Yes, we can. Shoot me an email with pictures of the shocks if you can. Are they off the car at the moment?

    My new shocks are totally fine. I purchased them from Eurospares when they had one of their free shipping sales and then put them on during my annual service.

    Is it just me, or does anyone else find it rather startling that there’s only “16mm at the front and 36mm at
    the rear” of dampening on these “shocks”? Am I missing something?

    George: My shocks seem very hard on rough pavement, bumping and crashing. Did you find that the new shocks changed the ride quality? were better? did you have that problem?
    What was the cost of the replacements? Thanks for your input.

    You should do a session at Centre Gravity if in the UK, they are doing mine next week, mine was good after the new shocks and springs, but expecting the car to be tailored to my driving style :)

    So I need new shocks for my 2007 599 GTB. I'm looking for the best options. Unfortunately it"s a garage queen with 12k miles BUT highly modified and LOUDDD.
    I'm here to see some shock suggestions. Right now I"m tossing it up between Moton 3 way or KW 3 way.

    does anyone know the cost of rebuilding them? I'm changing out shocks in a month or so, and want to get the old ones rebuilt as spares...

    I got new OEM shocks ( Eurospares ) and the car should be back this week from getting aligned, and full fluid service as well. I'm going to have the old ones rebuilt at some point.

    Be nice of somebody would make a newer mag shock that melded in with the factory electrics of the car. Spent $25k having the shocks replaced on the HGTE. Totally insane.
