Anyone seen these shocks before?

[Danith]

Bought my 172 Cup with these on. They stick out like a sore thumb! No big deal but anyone seen em before and know if they're the right ones for a Cup?

Is that a Lip damper? I have those on my 172 Cup. I feel my car doesn't handle as it should because of them (AND tired front dampers). Anyway, seeing your photo led me to do some research.

Looks like QH Lip are part of the Klarius Group and manufacture dampers for OE applications. The part number shown on yours (179604) comes up as the rear damper for, I guess, any model of Clio! Just type in the part number in ebay and you will see a Car Parts retailer selling the same part for all the Clio models. Oh, and they cost £23.85.

Suspected as much! The guy who owned it before me was a complete rough arse! Next job on my to do list then! Best place for cup dampers (except Renault rip off)?

They're not that expensive IIRC. Circa 60 per side?

He doesn't have Paypal. He is an ace bloke. You can call his work's number and pay him with card over the phone (Much easier!)

I have exactly the same rear dampers, looks like I'll be changing to OEM 182 cup ones then as I assumed these LIP ones were cheap!

you'll notice the difference, those lip ones are terrible, cowboys I bought mine off had fitted those and it drove like I had a kangaroo in the boot.
