4N911 AWD Swift Springs now black?

I just bought a set from somebody who claims these were shipped directly from Swift and they confirmed the color with Swift. Can somebody please chime in and confirm that these are indeed Swift (4N911)?

It'd be news to me if they were black now, those look just like my factory springs with the markings...the swift springs shout say swift springs on them regardless of color anyways. Have you tried contacting swift to see if they are shipping them in black now?

Definitely don't look like Swifts, not enough coil windings and they are a progressive spring, like Hashim noted, those look like cleaned up OEMs
Here's a link on the 4N907 set

He claims that those stickers are the only thing on there and no swift branding, He will include receipt ad everything and insists that I can call Swift to confirm which I'm doing as soon as they open. I was hoping other could help me confirm though as I am a little hesitant.

Well, if he bought the springs and put them on his car, he'd be left with those in the swift springs box and a recipt for the springs on his car...I have a swift springs box in my garage with my stock springs too...the springs are on my car....look a the picture that newt posted...they're not even similar in the winding let alone color

They're not progressive springs, so right away definitely not swift. Just took a look at my OEM springs. They have those exact little white and brown markings on them. The number of coils is the same as well. Those are just clean OEM springs.

So seems like even Swift believes this guy sounds like a very honest guy and is going to have him send the springs back and Swift will be sending me brand new springs directly from them. I spoke with Leonard at Swift and he was super helpful, awesome guy, awesome team! Thank you!

That's an interesting development.

I wonder what will happen when Swift gets OEM springs returned to them?

Fantastic customer service

I think you have too much faith in people. More than likely the seller was trying to pull a fast one and sell his old springs.

lol well that's not something I hear often lol....I was thinking the same at first but then he mentioned that Swift is replacing them, I don't see why they'd take any responsibility if the seller was pulling a fast one ...or maybe I read his post wrong...

I just think Swift is a great company that cares for people and they're helping someone out who got screwed over. He is a lot more likely to recommend their product to others. Maybe I have too much faith in Swift lol.
