Will look again but I couldn't find any marks. Also how do you align the lowers?

Doesn't have shock tabs or sway bay tabs, long story short the only reason I don't send them back is because I waited about 10 weeks to get them and I'm not a satisfied customer

what pisses me off is the fact that I thought that I was getting lower control arms with shocked Tabs but because I did not request them I didn't get them. But the funny thing is I had told him on the phone and through emails that I could not find a link for the lowers so he took my order from and email and never mention that I needed to say that I wanted him to include the shock tabs that come included WTF
