I'm looking at buying a set of coilovers but i'm a little undecided as to which ones to go for. I know there have been many threads regarding Fabia coilovers lately, but none seem to be helping me much. Do i go for stainless or not? Is it worth paying that bit more?

depends on what you are using the car for and also how long you intend to keep it. If you want it for the next few years I would go for stainless if it were me.

Get stainless ones. british weather and the fact we use salt on our roads will rust non stainless steel ones solid in a year or two.

deffo go for stainless, the normal ones look ok for about 2 weeks then they just rust up like the geezer above has said
