Are bilstein shocks stock?
Today I went into a tire shop to have my tires rebalanced while my tire was off I noticed these bright yellow shocks and got the part number labeled on them and looked them up and they look after market, all in all what I’m wondering are these stock or after market I can’t find any info about them! Any info is very much appreciated, thanks

Exactly like that thanks for the info! What I’m wondering next is are the springs oem I can’t Seem to find oem spring pictures anywhere and they are just black so it’s hard to tell does anyone have any pictures of oem springs?

Yellow is also the color of the Koni (Sport) 8241 dampers. Neither the Konis or the Bilsteins are OEM and the OP should be able to tell what brand they are by carefully looking at markings on the shock body. Both the Konis and the Bilsteins are sealed, gas-pressurized units with set bounce settings. The rebound settings are adjustable, but the Konis need a special tool up front and then, only if the operator knows why and how they're adjusting them.
Looked around online and came to the conclusion that the springs are still oem this is the only pic I have of em correct me if You think otherwise
