How are the shocks work after the re-anodizing? Any rubbing on the internals, or leaking?
they work just fine, i was worried about that too, but the anodize'er assured me the material dimensions would not change, they were right.. the parts are spot on...
I should have been clearer: the anodizing wasn't my main worry: it just changes the characteristics of the top layer of material. What worried me more was the removal of the old anodizing.
Anyway, glad it works out well; it really looks top notch and unique
i see what your saying, the surface did not change, no piiting was created, they look the same but purple, the trick is to use brand new shock bodies, ones that are not dirty or used

That thing looks sweet, you should've left the body clear so you could see all that nice anodizing.....
Just kidding, it looks awesome.
