Looking good!

BTW Eibach is actually the manufacturer for many brands of aftermarket springs including Dinan, Ground Control, etc so your springs are actually manufactured by Eibach according to Cobra's specifications. This is one of the reasons why I have used Eibach on a majority of my vehicles.

Well, to be more accurate...the Cobra brand has been purchased by Merwede Springs, which supply to Eibach and other brands, so my Cobra Springs, which are Eibach Springs are actually Merwede Springs.....but who cares..the are rock solid and drive superb..

Seems odd that Merwede would buy a spring brand especially if they are the actual manufacturer of Cobra springs. Additionally why would they bother if they are also manufacturing one of the largest suppliers of springs, Eibach, who does springs for a ton of aftermarket brands. Doesn't add up if indeed what your are saying is true. Maybe you can help me understand.

Hey man..don't shoot the messenger

I know they are trying to re-introduce the Cobra brand on the european circuit...I got a little tour on in the warehouse and there ware sections everywhere...Cobra's, Eibach, springs for asian markets...And besides the springs, they make coils, and other components for coilover kits...

But like I said before...not really that interesting who makes what...
