Team Graphite buggy

So, I’ve had this car for evvvvvver in parts. Recently I decided to put it back together and run/race it so I used whatever used parts I had and saved the white parts. However, after careful consideration I elected not to run it and put all the original white parts back on it. I have most all of the original kit parts, but I am a bit confused on the shocks though. Would it have come with gold or the Teflon shocks? Chassis has never been run and I intend to keep it that way. Here’s a pic of it as it sits.

Both shock configurations were sold with the RC10 Graphite. Either is correct. The Team Car had the gray shocks.

Ok, that makes since now. Mine did have the teflon shocks and my gold tub(used) had the gold shocks. I’m gonna make a racer out of a TQ10 chassis(used) and try to mimic the AE graphite car. I have noticed though that the TQ10 chassis does flex more than the AE graphite chassis. Maybe a top graphite plate(1.5mm) would stiffen it up. Thanks again
