Well I bought these shocks about 2 years ago so there's no returning them at this point, I'll just have to use the spacers and washer method. It's very fitting though, considering 99% of the companies dealt with restoring my car from the engine and paint down to the smallest piece of hardware has been nothing but a problem or I've been downright screwed by them. If it's just some spacers, I'll have to deal with it like everything else.
