They are not coilovers but weld-on sleeves that slide over your existing strut, with an adjustable spring platform that will raise or lower the car.
The kit comes with spring cup spanner, threaded sleeves and 4 springs.

I tried to order a strutbrace from them..total cost including shipping was about $113 US..
they'll only accept American Express cards not UK visa's
or international money orders (whatever that is)

remember u pay tax on any order u import into england...... just went through this for my bonnet. Add the product cost to the shipping then take 5% of that now take the total and work out vat on it at 17.5% and add the vat to the 5% and thats what extra you have to pay. For me it was an extra 80 quid i wasnt expecting.
Hope it helps

Just had a look and started to purchase a rear strut brace for classic - $59.95 (£40). Input 'other country' for shipping and it says for the cost "N/A". has anyone ordered from this site and if so what was the cost of shipping???

shipping shouldnt be too bad as its only small, but you have the tax to pay in the uk and customs may hold it if they dont know what it is.
worth looking at fedex as it cuts a lot of the **** out.... i just fedexed a carbon bonnet over and it was far less grief
Shipping small items is not particularly viable unless theyre in large quantities, or you lie about their value so you dont pay tax. I order dvds from the us and they get shipped as used software so i pay no tax. But if they got lost theyre declared at no value so id get no compensation. I shipped my bonnet at full value and paid the tax because i didnt want to risk it getting broken and being screwed
