Hi Nico.

Nice place you have here. Complete with the dedicated enthusiasts I prefer to hang with!

I did a search and can't find anything about what the paint dots on the Maxima's OEM springs mean. The fronts are marked the same, but the backs have 2 different colored spots. Is one for the left and other for the right? The different paint spots are one in yellow and one in blue.

Removing the Moog complete strut assemblies and going back to all OEM everything, except the new Koni STR T Struts. Everything else has problematic strut mounts that fail. I bought a used SE spring set from another member here and want to make sure it is installed perfectly. I HATE banging, clunking and rattling!

Also, anybody have any experience and advice on painting the springs for that clean and new look?

Thanks Fellas!
