take a closer look at them, if you see that the metal that makes up the spring seat is twisted then yep they are fecked if not they are more than likely designed that way

I did look at th underside of them , didn't notice anything unusual, So I fitted them, after being told they were made like that. Have now been told otherwise, if was one shock I would be obvious it was broken, but they are both like it at same angle

Thats the thing, the look fucked, and I'm aware they usually are flat(as thats what I had before) but they don't look broken, and nobody has a certain answer

P,s thanks everyone so far

Not fucked at all, Ones on my brothers corsa are the same and they were bought new. Its just the design, Lostboys is obviously a different design.

That doesn't look right to me. The one on the left hand side of your pic looks fine but the one on the right looks bent! Never seen any like that before and can't see why one side would be different to the other
