    Why stores don't sell the front shocks? I was able to get the rears but seems I need to go to rockauto or dealership to get the front? Is the OEM front shocks made by KYB? Also, is there a how to sticky for front suspension replacement? Anyone upgrade springs or should I just keep the stock?

    Thanks!

    I dont know how much of a hurry you are in but, I've been talking to Koni and want the Radier rear shocks for my car and something nice to compliment them in the front. Hopefully I know more later this week.
