I beg to differ.

Moss Front shock Conversion: $450-700 (depending on the kit)

2 replacement shocks from World Wide Auto Parts ("Better than New"):  
$150 + $120 core

Moss Rear shock Conversion: $250-400 (depending on kit)

2 replacement shocks from World Wide Auto Parts: $121 + $60 core

I see a difference of between $400 between the cost of WWAP's  
rebuilds and Moss' Kit, and I have no idea what sort of hardware you  
would need to find $500 worth.  Certainly I didn't need to buy a  
single extra part.

Personally, I am VERY happy with the quality of Peter's work, and the  
lifetime warranty is just additional peace of mind.
