I recently traded a guy my cheapo coilovers (plus a little cash) for his skunk2s, however he did not have the round pieces that sit ontop of the springs, (betweeen the springs and rubber/plastic cap which has the studs/grommet for top of the strut) I kept the ones off my cheap coilover setup and they look very similar to the skunk ones I've seen, so should I use them?, or not worry about it, the spring diameter is very similar for both setups, and I currently have them in my car with out the caps and they seem to ride/preform fine...
Sleeved Coilover Part ???

you better put that cap on there, It stops the shock shaft from popping up into the trunk or engine bay. Trust me i didn't use them once and about 3 days later i was driving down the road and both shafts shot thought into th trunk.

the aluminum covers with the hole drilled in the center?
These?
I've got an extra set if you want them. They don't have the rubber pieces that go in between the top hats (the black metal parts) and the springs, but you can get those from Energy Suspension for pretty cheap. Your stock top hats will work fine with the Skunk2 springs.
If you want mine, I'll sell my OEM top hats to you for $10 plus shipping.

Oh, those- I don't know what they're called, but they basically isolate your springs from the top hats. Without them, you'll have a really noisy ride. You can get polyurethane ones from Energy Suspension for not too much cash- I would get those.
