My custom springs for my 85 from Chariot and also a set of Deaver springs for my 72 I got do not look much different. Even the made to spec Deavers I drove down to pick up are also the same (over $800). In use the metal moves and paint will come off anyway. Springs are shipped loose or on a pallet. Either way they get banged up. A little Krylon or Rustoleom and all is good. Not a worry for me.
