Well that's weired because I won a full Bilstein suspension kit at a show 3 or 4 years ago. The shocks were like these in the link, and the springs are red instead of blue. http://www.performancecentre.co.uk/p/sv_pl.asp?VC=VXNOV01&PTC=SUB12

Now be[cause the box had the Bilstein name all over it, I understand that they may have out sorced the springs, and made up the kit with there own shocks, but up to today I certainly believed it was a Bilstein kit.

Anyway both of the front springs have rusted through and snapped, so can you give me some idea of what replacement springs I should use.

I'd recommend buying a full set of front and rear springs at the size you want ie standard height, -40mm, -60mm etc etc djdommyp on here does custom ones
