So my car is currently in pieces awaiting the new 3800 implant. I was looking at the rear springs, and they're not looking great (cosmetically anyway). I was thinking this might be a good time to replace them, possibly painting them to match the body colour. I know you don't see them much, but thinking if I don't do it now, I never will. I'm already way over budget on this but don't want to get it all back together and regret not replacing them, or at least cleaning them up. One problem is, once I get back to the car I'm only going to have about a half day to get it all back together, so I don't have time to sand and paint and sand and paint, wait to dry, sand and paint etc...... Any suggestions?

Think I still have a set of rear WS6 springs in my storage, painted silver. I had a full set of WS^ for spare but think sergeants got the fronts springs already.

Not familiar with those ones, are they a direct swap for the stock springs?

Yea, sorry - I've got the fronts from Adam.

How good are your struts, are you going to be replacing them? I'd be more worried of changing them than the springs.

I have a new set of Monroes I got from Rob, so I was thinking I might want to take care of the springs while I'm in there.
