Default Blown shock

Not sure what I did. I put Swift springs on last weekend. I put about 300 miles on the car and today I find a puddle of fluid by the wheel. Further inspection, I find the front left strut is leaking. I must have done something when changing the spring because the car hasn't been driven hard at all. No potholes or anything unusual. Basically I've only driven it to get an alignment and then I drove it highway miles to Chicago and back for a preseason game Friday night.

Really not looking forward to dealing with the spring again, but oh well. Any chance someone has a spare driver's side strut in good shape? Yes, the car is in warranty, but I can't really blame Nissan in this case.
