Front struts

So its getting about that time in my camaro's life that she needs some front struts. Im looking for a good mid-line strut, they dont have to be adjustable or anything serious, just something better than stock. I know plenty of good brand names and models, but i'd rather hear from people on their personal oppinions.

What do you all think?

I just had a set of 4 Bilsteins installed. The fronts are more like a bastardization of shocks meet struts. Making the installation a pain in the butt.. I just had a local mechanic install them, he charged 300 for the entire set of 4.

The rears are a piece of cake but they wanted 3.2 hours for the fronts.

These new Bilstein shocks are awesome, though my originals where completely shot making anything seem better. Its a firm ride, but still very comfortable. I had a problem with the previous shocks causing wheel hop when one slipped.. These just kept them planted nicely in the turns.
