Default Why in the world!?!?!?

I came across the Swift spec-r lowering springs for the 370z on Amazon.com and almost purchased them, but then I realized the color of these springs is different from the ones on Evasive Motorsports and Kamispeed.com. Kamispeed sells swift springs for the 370z on Amazon as well, but if you go the their website the springs are black and the springs on amazon are like blue. Are there any differences in these two? Was there a earlier version of the swift spring for the 370z? LOOK AT THE LINKS BELOW!

I'm sure it's just a stock photo.

I really want to know if it's the same thing or not because I plan on buying a set soon.

There is a difference in part number. 4N905R and 4F905R (in Technical Details section of Amazon page). What that means, I dunno.

Why amazon? We have venders for a reason. Support them or buy used that pop up all the time in the classifieds.

i luv buying stuff from amazon. over 90% of my purchases are made there.

i look at amazon, then check ebay store fronts (for the same seller without the amazon premium), then the other stores for best price. vendors can still sell through amazon. not sure why they dont if they haven't already cause thats where most people go anyway to find product.

yah, been a amazon prime member for a while. the amount of stuff my wife and i buy from amazon, that $70 membership or watever it was, is well worth it. not to mention we have an amazon visa card and collect points every month..so we recouped that $70 in like less than 2months.

it's a waste for a vendor NOT to have a store front on amazon...even if it was just for advertising their name.
