More over saturated flash pics...I'm sure they aren't this bright salmon colored in real-life.

Ha...no not my bed. Those I found in the classifieds here on i-Club. If they were mine, I wouldn't need to see someone elses set to color match.

I have my pantone book and my struts in the same place. I'll try and get time to wash a strut and get a comparo today.

I have these EXACT same shocks, JDM v8 STI RA I believe. I Plan on taking them off soon to sell them but I can take some pictures for you if you want. And if you're wondering the way they look in that picture is the way they look in real life. Mine aren't as clean as those, but I know they are that shade of red when cleaned up like that.

All my struts are pink, but I also have the STI adjustable coilovers. They're great for rallyx.

Well...I never got to see a set in "real-life" so I made my best guess based on internet photos and also what I could live with. So I cut up a set of 04 struts I've been saving and picked RAL3027 powder coat as my color. It's maybe a little more "raspberry" than "cherry blossom", but it's not bad. Just a touch pinker than I was hoping.

I can't wait until I get home from work and put on the Koni stickers to finish it off (and of course transfer my inserts to these.)

Color stuff is fairly simple:

Red = oem STi
Pink = Aftermarket STi or V-Limited

Sorry about not coming through. Mine are more red than cherry blossom.

somewhere in the 200 range.

yours looks real close to what mine look like.

The cherry blossom is closer to like a 206.


the "cherry blossom" struts.. I.E. the special edition/ coil overs and what not are VERY pink.

What you have is really close to what the sti struts and my v7 spec C struts look like.

Very much just a KYB red.
