Okay, so its only on part, but hey, it works (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Not being a fan of the factory cover on the shocks (heavy, ugly) I had the pieces from my old tie-rods laying around and figured out that the bellows fits perfectly over the strut......... Attached image(s)

Just a thought - I had dust covers on the shocks for my truck and boy did it rust the hell out of 'em in about a year. The top of the shock and the chrome rod were very rusty. I cut all the boots off after finding the rust on two of them. Seems those boots trap moisture and dirt -- make sure you have plenty of drainage holes, my dust covers had drainage holes but that didn't seem to help.
