I have had very good luck with Classicgarage.com over the years, they offer koni inserts for $789.96/Set of 4! It's worth a look.
Sincerely,

Yes, the inserts can be bought from classic garage, but then you need to get springs, cut/grind your housings, weld on new perches, etc. The inserts are not plug and play.

They are almost plug and play (grind and drilling) if you are only replacing the strut portion. Welding is only required if you are making them coil-overs.

Re: Where to buy suspension kits?

Any options for just buying the rear? or am I wrong for that?

Only buying coilovers for the rear? Why on earth would you do that?
