I have never seen blue ones, black, yellow and silver are the usual colours. They should have a serial number stamped into the shock body, near the lower mount. Which you can see without removing them. Send me the those and I will look them up for you.

cheers

Germany & US international distributors dont have blue as a listed shipping color. 99% are the yellow / blue band that is synonomous with bilstein - obvious brandname... its like coke changing its color to green... not gonna happen !

The only thing i do know is there is a guy in vic who reckons he's an awesome suspension whiz and often uses bilstein bodies for his stuff.... and he does paint them blue

I dont have any further information regarding the above dude however I can supply all relevant stock codes if you wish.
