Are the Koni yellows still the best deal for the street?

I just replaced the clutch and pressure plate recently and if I do the brakes and suspension (All not covered under the warranty as ware items) then she should be good to go for some time.

The warranty runs out the end of April 2014. The only thing I can think of to try and make them replace that has not been addressed already is some of the cooling system pieces.

Again thanks for any feedback.
If you decide to hold onto it, I'd do the water pump, expansion tank and fan clutch as well. I know a lot of people do the radiator too, I've never had a problem with the radiator itself, just the expansion tank and hose. Mine has also been completely issue free (knock on wood)
