Front End Problem

I think my front struts, or at least one of them is possibly stuck in the uncompressed position, after an accident I had where I skid and pulled off a 540 spin after I hit another car. Point being, after some paint and body shop tweeking I think i have a problem with my front struts and them being either bent or just stuck somehow in the uncompressed position. My front end is being held up at about stock ride height, even though i am supposed to have a 2.5" drop. Anyway, assuming that I have checked every other possible suspension component, which I have, I an going to get some new front struts. Without completely breaking the bank, I am leaning towards getting Bilstein shocks and struts all around.

Anyone have any suggestions on front struts? opinions or good/bad luck with the Blisteins? yellow and blue that I think come stock on the SLP set up F-body's

Thanks!

Giovanni

Just FYI, 4th gens don't have struts on the front. They are coil-over shocks. Talk to Sam Strano for suggestions.
