WTB: 05-07 WRX shocks and springs

Looking for fromt and rear shocks and spring preferrably low mileage from an 07 wrx, but any 05-07 will work.
Thanks!

What material is that? Looks like plastic which Im not sure would last...
Think Ive seen some metal ones around.
Also read that the saggy butt look is due to the front and rear fenders cut differently giving it that "saggy" look in the rear and its not a mechanical drop that too low in the rear.

will read more on the subject...

I can understand looking unequal would bother anyone. Since its easy to put the spacer in, ill install the shocks in and see if ii can live with it or not. Thanks for the info...

Yup, Shane @ Paranoid Fab is super easy to work with. I bought for both my '05 and Leila's '10 Forester. I've been on 3/8" Paranoid Fab saggy butt spacers for almost 4 years now in my beater Fozz with no issues.
