Default Yellow shocks

I'm looking for yellow shocks for my 3.5 susp. with 1 body 4.5 total. I don't like old man emu and bilsteins are too expensive. Any one know of any brand? Also, don't want to paint them.
Thanks

Expensive ? $100 or less is cheap for a shock.

Don't do cheap/crap shocks. Trust me. The OME nitro charger are great shocks from what I hear.

Don't cheap out on shocks. And you only need 3.5 shocks the body lift doesnt effect shock lenght.

You could always just throw on some yellow boots. What don't you like about the OME?

if color (appearances) is your only concern... we cant help you my friend

consider buying based on performance not looks - accessories are for looks, not suspensions

Buy based on performance, not looks. You can always buy colored shock boots if you have to accesorize.

The ome nitro sport are some of the nicest riding shocks I have run. What don't you like about them? They do come in yellow.
