    someone at mbworld bought KONI FSD shox, they came without shock dust covers?
    who does sell these new if Koni doesn't supply them?
    seems like the old dust covers are not removable from old shox?

    if not using dust covers, sand and other crap will grind and destroy suspension rods.

    He doesn't need them. he lives in sunny Southern California where there is no road salt on snowy roads. Its the seals they try and protect on foul weather cars-and the adjustable detent button on the Yellows that face upwrad and can collect debris, thus corrode. A good weather climate car never has to worry about this. A little rain and a little dirt over 20 years is nothing compared to road salt.

    i live in scandinavia where lots of salt is being dumped on the streets every winter.
    i need dust covers for protection as my shox will corrode.
    i don't drive my car in winter, but it's better to be 100% covered

    I put on KYB Shocks - Gas-a-Just's and they do a good job. I also got a front sway bar from a C280 Sport. It is a solid bar instead of the hollow original bar, and give more stability. Not easy to find these as this sway bar as there are not that many W202 Sports out there that are being parted-out.
