Well.. after looking through the instructions that came with the kit, these are KYB GR-2's...Seeing as how it says so right in the generic KYB instructions So, despite not being a simple 'repaint' they are relabeled.

Funny, since Blauparts claim: "Blausport Audi shocks and struts meet / exceed the quality construction of Audi Bilstein shocks (Touring Class Brand), KYB GR2 shocks, and Boge shocks."

Not gonna complain as it was pretty obvious these were not special, but seeing as how the cheapest I could find all four struts/shocks, mounts, bearings, bump stop/boots, and nuts/bolts was $390.00 before shipping, it's all good. $299.00 shipped will not get a complaint outta me

Smile how did it go?

Just wondering about the blau shocks/struts. I'm looking to replace mine.
Did you like the ride? are they comfort or sport ride?
I like more the comfort, but as you guys mention, for the price, I'll settle for anything decent.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Well.. IMO, its somewhere in between.. Its definitely not a Luxo ride, but its not 'Honda Civic' either...
