Yeah, I was pissed. So I assume I can get some GC's that will fit with the konis. I don't get it, Koni really did try their best to give us the hardest install in the world. They even advertise that any spring/coilover will fit thier shock. Well I'll be emailing them about this. I'm not sure if I can modify the koni shock to fit the skunk2's
Here's a pic of how the koni is too wide and won't let the skunk2 sleeves go all the way down:

Here's a pic of the original strut (cut apart of course :) ) with the skunk2 sleeve going over it just fine:

This next pic isn't mine, just using for referrence. As you can see on the top of the koni insert the part that is round and wider than the rest of the koni, that's what is keeping the skunk2's from going on
So I'm pissed. I'll have to sell these and get some GC I guess :( If those even fit, from looking at some pics FACTION95Si posted here (http://ephatch.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=13472&pagenumber=2)

it looks like they are the same width as the konis? If so, then no coilovers fit the konis?????
