Vera noice, if at some point in the future you sell the FZS, you should def sell these separately, they are worth their weight in gold pressed latinum.

That's a surprisingly good price, cheaper than I thought!  Is the kit both rebound & compression?Customs mauled me getting the Racetech parts in from the States, so mine worked out only slightly less.
