FWIW last time i checked Autolign were unable to service the factory MR2 Bilsteins so keep this in mind if the set you found need servicing

Are you sure thats the case for all of them? Cause I've seen a few in wreckers, and they were definately yellow with the blue bilstein sticker.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

Mine is black with a small yellow bilstein sticker on it.
No "stance", no "hellaflush", none of that bullshit. Nothing but no grip on full boost.

Well for all the ones I've seen, which are my 1994 GT-S (2 of them), my 1996 GT, and several others I've looked at. So at least up until 1996 they were black from the factory.

Quite odd...the ones I've seen in wreckers were pre 93, maybe they changed for the later ones?

More likely the ones you've seen where replacements, all the ones I've seen on Tau were black, and that's quite a few of them. As Mr Revhead has said the current supply is yellow, and from what I've seen don't have the Toyota logo on them.
