Default Top hats?

I just recently bought some progress series 2 coilovers and didnt recieve top hats. I knew that they werent coming and decided to just use my stock ones. Now I want a set for both of my stock and my new coilovers. So my question is where can I get a decent pair of top hats, whether it be oem or aftermarket?

Dealer (new) or the WTB forum maybe ... ?

Maybe, mind you you, just taking a wild guess here ...

If you'd used the search (or Google) you'd have read people have indeed used GC eth with other brands - just commercial BS from GC.

Use Koni

Maybe my literary skills are getting worse, but I am pretty shure he says nothing about extended top hats.
