Stipe shocks...

are now $310 each :confused:

A lot of parts (and other things) are increasing in price, partly due to the trade sanctions our government put on import of materials. FWIW I paid $275 per Stipe shock in 12/2014, so $35 increase in ~6 years.

Well, you guys talked me into it...just received 2 new shocks from Stipe.

Do I really have to paint them black??? Love the way they look unpainted :)
 
Wow, that was fast! They are a thing of beauty...

Good morning,
I installed four stipes 1 year ago. I painted it black.

I have two sets on my cars. One set has about 50k miles and the still work as new. I am well satisfied.
Good Day
 
I put the Stipes shock on my '31 A pickup. Handles a world better than without.

What would guys say/think if you saw these shocks painted in wheel colour (apple green in my case) rather than black? ;)
 
Erich,


I took a special satin black. Not deep black. A very little bit grey shadow; "eldered".
