I bought a set of used shocks and struts a couple days ago that are supposed to be Cobra Shocks and Struts. Can you guys please take a look at this the picture on this link and tell me if your shocks and struts look like this or I bought the wrong thing.

They look like shocks and struts to me. If they were supposed to be 2003 Cobra, or Cobra R parts, they are not.

Are there part numbers on them?
They aren't from a R, as those are yellow in color.
I haven't had the wheels on my 01 off yet to look.
