Depends on where you purchase, but they will range from $40-55 each side.

Very nice. I will consider doing this if I get Dinan struts. Why couldn't you clean and paint the existing rings?

Thanks man. I didn't paint the existing rings for the main reason of not having any downtime with my car. After I painted the rings, I let them sit for a couple of days to properly cure before installing them. Also, just in case I did mess up painting these, I can still use my car while I complete the work. The rings weren't that expensive ($40-55ea), so buying a spare set was a no brainer.
