I just picked up the MA822'* at Advance Auto. They matched Rock Auto'* price with shipping. The pictures I saw showed the shocks were white, but these are black. The part number is correct on the box. I guess I'll just have to make sure they look the same before I take the old ones off.

Yep...My Monroe'* are black!

ya it depends where you get them i have seen them white or black mine are black

notice any difference after installing them?

I have about 135k on my car and thought it was time to replace them

I've seen white, blue and black on various Monroe replacements.

NAPA and black on mine, and yes on the ride comfort.
