ONE (1) of the front dampeners has a failed oil seal (completley straight piston and bilstien agreed to rebuild for less than 100$)
the other three work great and I ended up going with new ones all the way around
the coilovers as a whole have 60,000 miles on them.

What billies are they specifically. NB fitment, are they HDs or HardS?

Looks like Spec Miata springs and NB mounts, so I'm going to take a WAG and say they're NB fitment Bilsteins from a Spec Miata suspension kit, rather than NA's converted over.

Can't tell OEM vs Hard-S vs Sport HD vs HD without a picture of the p/n's, but following my logic they should be HD's.

I would tend to agree with you... especially given the length of the shaft poking through the OEM-looking bushings on the top hats.

UPDATE**
Willing to sell the springs + ground control set up and top hats separate!
actually would prefer to keep the dampeners and rebuild them/put them back on later with some softer springs

No worry folks... I landed on this hand grenade.

Be happy you weren't the one on the receiving end of these parts.
